Is the cam good for boost?

Looking good man!

Dumb question, something looks wierd towards the bottom part of this piston. Just a goofy camera shadow effect thing or is there really a gap there?

I think what you are seeing in piston 1 is some oil pooling at the bottom of the cylinder. After I cleaned the pistons with some carb cleaner, I put some oil around each cylinder wall while it sits for a bit for the heads arrive.

I picked up a new Underdrive pulley to replace the OEM crank pulley that has the huge gouge in it.

Also I picked up a new crank seal to hopefully mitigate the risk of the new Underdrive pulley getting gouged as well.

In a holding pattern at this point for the pulley and heads to arrive so I can put this beast back together. Getting excited...

What UD did you go with? ARP, Powerbond, SLP?

Coming along well - time for a new intake mani too!
