Thanks for building this engine for me, it exceeded every expectation I had! You are great to work with and you explained the science behind everything, the hp was about 5 more then we talked about. On no! This experience was prefect, thanks again Randy

Just curious where ignition timing landed? I see the distributor was locked, just wondering what those heads liked.
