Nice! Should be a stout little motor! I'm guessing ~110 hp :dance:
Check out the brain on Kostya, talking about tight decks and all, he's starting to sound like me! 8-)

I got some parts in from CIP1 for Eric's motor: 1.25:1 ratio rocker arms, 1.5 qt. sump, and cylinder spacers. I also have the chromoly pushrods, which aren't in the picture.

Motor is going to have a tight ~.040 deck height with compression ratio of about 8.8:1!



Thanks!!!:dance: I guess all we need is a 009 dizzy, and a cylinder head temp. gauge, some lines and fittings for the oil filter and full-flow.

make sure you guys clean out that sump *really* well on the inside, they are notorious for having sand inside them from the casting process. :?
