I just got back from KW, and of course now even more motivated to finish it up.
Gonna pull them both and pressure check the water system before I tear them down.
They are brand new engines and heads cams etc and I want them to stay that way so that when I sell it it will be a great buy for someone.
Started working with Bob Madero on some better roller cams for it. Still going to leave them mild, but I want them user friendly and baxically oil change engines so it will be easier to sell.
Going to go ahead and change the rings and bearings so I can make sure that there is no damage from the water being in there.
