Awesome man! That's some fast work! I'm going to have to hit it hard to have Donnie's motor done and tested in time.

I pulled the heads an cylinders off this morning...i used too much sealant on the heads :nono: , oozed down onto the rings. Been working on the valve train geometry, seems like one of my exhaust valves is a little higher then the rest of the valves. I'm going try a fresh start tomorrow and see if i make it work.

What kind of sealant do you use between the head and cylinder? Is it a Type 4 thing?
