Well, I got the car back Wednesday. Runs great. Sounds the same as before. My Butt can not feel any difference. But, I have been gentle with it. :D

Specs:
Vintage Inlines(CI) Aluminum Head
Rebuilt the same block. Bored 0.060 over
9.6:1 Compression
Squared the deck. 17-10 thousandths
HSC Flat top pistons
Felpro Head Gasket
Everything Balanced.
New Rods, bearings, oil pump, etc ...
1.6 adjustable rockers
3/8 Push Rods (Smith Bros.)
Recurved DSii /MSD 6A. Thanks Bill !!
Gano Filter :)
Same Holley 350 carb. (for now)
Schneider 264-74H cam
Clifford single out headers/Flowmaster Dual Out Muffler (old setup from before)
PowerMaster Mini-starter
New Motor Mounts

I still have to reorganize the wiring/hoses. What else am I missing?
Oh, the intake fit great. I didn't have to mill anything for clearance at the shock tower.

Marco, engine detail is perfecto, nice job. My only concern is the intake cap over the carb. possibly being a potential restriction??
A test ride with a wideband A/F with & without will let you know. Bill
 
:beer: That sure looks Beautiful all back togeather, great job Marco! (y) :nod:
 
Thanks for the compliments. Now I have to break it in with some mileage before I change the oil.

Bill, I can not find any air cleaner that will fit because of the bracing under the hood.
 
I changed the oil today. Used some 10w30 Orielly oil & a bottle of zddp for zinc.
