Posting details of my engine build is like diving into your swimming pool when you know there's a snake in it, but here goes:

- Block, heads, $ crank, rods all mag'd out perfecto. I am not sure I am going to use the C6AE-E Lemans rods, though they are brand spanking new. Block will be taken to 4.250, new Diamond 10:1 pistons on the way from Keith Craft (those folks are excellent to do business.)

- Based on feedback from Keith, info/feedback here on CC and talking to Comp, I am going with the 294S solid flat tappet setup, 248/248/.605 lift.

- My MR heads are so pristine I hate cutting on them, but I think we are going to install hard seats and port and polish them unless someone tells me conclusively they've done it and not seen a worthwhile gain. Also using all new valves/parts and either T&D or Erson roller rockers.

- Sidewinder intake with a Barry Grant 850.

Fire away.
