Alright, I added 5 new photos of recent work.
So last weekend I have installed the new valve springs, seals and retainers on both heads and I managed to install one of the heads back to the block and completed the installation of pushrods and rockers.
I must say that using stock bolts made me a bit uncomfortable especially when adding an additional 70 degrees on the 3rd pass to stretch the bolts. I can really appreciate the ARP bolts here and I wish I forked over the $$ for them but I am already too deep financially into this project.
I measured the piston to valve clearance and i read 0.1" on the intake and approx 0.24" on exhaust. I am pretty happy with these clearances.
The goal is to finish the engine assembly by end of this week.
