Installing hard line adaptor on fuel line today. In the last pic. you can see the hardline adaptor on the fuel return line and the plugged fuel feed waiting for its' turn.
I finally acquired the correct type of valve spring compressor making light work of assembling the head.
I'm trying hard not to hit ' buy it now' on a set of supertech springs and retainers but, in a moment of weakness, ordered a kick*ss flywheel instead of getting the standard one machined. Response on this thing will be scary.
Also picked up new BAP1 driveshafts which are identical to the lazerlynx items i already have.
On the crank angle sensor thing i'm ordering up a 36/1 trigger wheel and sensor and kissing goodbye to dizzy for good. No love lost there!

Gave the valves a finish lapping with fine grit lapping compound but something is stopping me from completing the head et al. Que bad angel in my ear 'supertech, 8000rpms man'.
