In one of your previous photos, there was a bum sleeping under the car. Ya might want to wack him with a shovel and get him out of there before you crank it.

Man, you are getting this thing together pretty quickly. Do you have others helping you put it all together?
Can't wait to see what kind of HP she'll be putting out.

I see allot of CNC heads listed as having 2.00 intake and 1.05.
I know the smaller valves will give the engine airflow better terminal velocity which equals better torq. Makes for a better street daily driver.

Why did you decide on 2.02 and 1.06 valves as compare to a smaller valve likes 2.00 or 1.90?
