Jonathan is in the middle of buying a house and everything is in storage. We brought the engine to my house to start assembling it some more since he got more parts.

He ported the Gt40 heads himself and had the machine shop mill them and put new bigger valves in them. I forget exactly what size they are but they will flow alot better. Heres some pics to get the thread going again.

He lubed it up like a pro!!!! I think he may have some experience lubing his shaft.

The F cam now belongs to Bobbystang.

lanky83 · May 16, 2010

I sold the the F cam to BobbyStang for his 89 hatch.
