It was beautiful out of the box. Put it on the engine stand to install my CFR headers. Those billet stroker push rod tubes are awesome if you're running stock HEs. I was going to put my CFR headers on and the stub tubes for 2 & 4 didn't fit. They are wider than stock. and interfere with the stub tubes. I have a set of AL pushrod tubes from EMS. I put them on and can run with my headers.

There was no way I was going to run HE's and a Triad when the heads were in the box.

Pictures this evening. Chris called me back and we talked about order of operations to get the header assembled. As soon as its on ill post a pic. I didn't get the motor to the shop till 1-2, uncrated, inventory and put on the stand. Then found the pushrod tube problem and fixed that. I'm old that was enough.

I bought this motor 2258 motor in a box. It went to Jorge and was machined balanced. Heads are 42x38 ported. It's set up for 8.7:1.

Time to go back to work before I run out of juice.
