Here are a few shots of the final assembly of the new motor.

The crank, whittled from Ken's old door stop.

Neat thing about using small block Chevy sized journals is factory coated rod shells in any taper desired.

The Fullauto head with 3mm over valves will be transferred from the old motor.
 
As bulletproof as it gets. I think I want to live in Colorado where they have 40 hour work days. I'm in awe of how you manage to accomplish so much.
 
Will that require a TTI behind it or will you go with standard gearbox and careful throttle hand?

Nice Jim,
hope you put many miles on this setup. Love the eye candy. Lots of dollars in there.
Cheers,

Jim,

Please excuse my ignorance, but what's a "Garrett"? Some sort of aerospace derived gearbox?
