    yes true it might be a usa 6 or very small c.i 6 log motor ??? the converter does fit on the box,i first thought someone moded the converter to fit a nissan or something.

    roller rockers are done ,020 on inlet and 022 on exhaust,i took my time ,about 1 1/2 hours to put studs in and lash rockers.

    i couldnt work out how to screw the studs in while trying to get the right angles on the cut-guide plates so i rang ol.m8 and gave me some advice,i spent an hour dummy assembling the studs and rocker gear then marking in pen within a couple of thou where they should go b4 putting 45lbs on the studs,then if nesscercary use a tiny punch to adjust so the pushrod isnt hitting the guide plate wall,well something like that.

    thanks mate,i suppose thats the one,i will go to supercheap and get some,cheer's,i wonder would it be wise to use on all the head bolts ? or only the number 13 bolt as described.

    84DA CROSSFLOW BUILD

    yep i will drop the head back down to the shop and get them removed,then how long b4 re installing them ? a couple of hours run in ?

    i usualy buy comp cams break in,i have the small joe gibbs assembly lube,but i dont even have a car to put it in yet,so its gunna sit on the stand for a bit,but latley been thinking about making a start up stand just for the hell of it as it comes in handy when building quite a few motors,also fun to annoy neighbors with no exhaust,nope the head is fully assembled with inners ,i no most recomend taking out the inners for break in,just might do that as i dont want any fuk-ups,will mark the pushrods too ,to make sure they are turning .

    tomorrow i will bolt the head on and fit lifters and top end assembly ,i have never done a solid b4,so im gunna take my time and re watch a few vid's on how its done,the last few clevo's i did with the exhaust just opening then ajust intake,then intake almost closed ,then adjust exhaust i think thats how it goes ,but i have had better success with doing rocker assembly at tdc with doing both at the same time,i suppose both ways are good ,just make sure your on the back of the cam.
