Thanks for the good tips there Paul, I could plumb that fuel line a little differently (I've done it often enough) and could dial in some more static timing. I'll give John a call and see what he says. I still have the valves in the carbs - so, I should solder them shut?

The forged pistons were custom made to go with the longer H-beam rods. They put the ring pack higher up the piston and have lighter wrist pins (the rotating assembly is 1 lb lighter per cylinder than the stock set up). No blower planned as I'm at about 10.3:1 SCR.
