I see you've been there. I nailed a deer (yes deer, not dear ) about 2 miles south of Burns at about 8:00 in the morning. Talk about feeling lost!

Great! It is a real stump puller with 9.5 compression, balanced and ported motor. I am running the stock lash .010 and .020, not those specs.....

Yeah I saw the .012/.012 on the box for valve lash and thought I will just run the stock .010/.020 and call it good. I'm taking the block in to the shop and having them install some new cam bearings on Thursday so the only thing that won't be touched is the pistons and cylinders.

Here is the build thread I have going for the car with a crapload of pics...
