Everything is back from the machine shop... they had to take 5.5 thou off of the head. Now I wait on bolts from Healtoe and work on the body.

Lol!
Griffen calculated compression at 11:1, should be interesting. Colt has had the cam for a week, guess I need to call them monday, and I'm getting the intake adapter to run a d16 intake and throttle body (which I have to figure out how that will work).
No one has come forward with DX valve springs, so I may have to find a cheap set of s2000 springs.

Update...I got the head assembled last weekend, and statted on the pistons. It appeared that rings that came with the Pistons aren't right...the oil rings seem to overeap when compressed. This is the kit I purchased http://www.ebay.com/...=item258a401685
Pg6b pistons and pm6 rings. What do you think?
