Re: 638 C460 Headed BBF
Update - Short block should be done in a few weeks, heads are fixed and made right.
Thanks Lem for the parts and camshaft
Thanks Charlie and Mike for getting the heads fixed up and right.
Thanks Jet Boat Bob for the timely machine work and assembly.
Thanks Keith Fulp for the engine plate and pointer work
Hopefully on the dyno in mid February.
Need to work on the mandrel, oil pump and vac pump drives and accessories next, bolt the heads on and check clearances and measure for pushrods.

Lem's got a connection with Peterson for a System that I'm probably going to use.

Just need to adjust the valves and install the intake.
Also waiting on a mandrel piece needed one a little shorter than the std pieces.
Should be on the dyno next week end.

Just pointing out that this is "Proven Builds" not "Projected Builds". To some people there must be no difference.
