Slow progress...





Finally got some fuggin' parts and am slapping this thing together, piece by piece, beer by beer. Pulled the valves and springs out with a "c" clamp and a highly modified piece of flat stock, lapped the valves and seats, almost lost an eye when re-enstalling one of the valves and the flat stock shot out of the clamp and all my valvetrain went flying, luckily found everything, with both of my eyes and slapped it together. Always wear eye protection when using janky tools. Sucks that my truck decided to blow up the rear end right as I get my parts, have a big heap of shit in the way in my garage now.
