[Verdoro 68]

Stopped by the machine shop today to motivate him into finishing up my heads. I’m impressed with his meticulousness, but it sure is testing my patience! We’re at almost a year since i dropped them off. He actually had my valves and heads out on his bench this time, so that’s a good sign. We talked details on valve angles, guides and seats.

Since I’ve changed cams a couple times on this build, I’m wondering if the Comp 995 springs Kauffmann sold me are still ok with the new .521/.540 cam. It’s not a huge change in lift from what I started with (.502/.510) and the max lift on those is .620 so I suspect I’ll be ok. I told him to let me know if he sees any issues.

Good plan! I’m certain my car would have taken a lot longer to get painted if I didn’t visit the body man on the regular.
