That looks awesome! Building an engine is all about being methodical and calculating! You have both of those traits!

I missed the part where you set up the end play on that roller cam, the cam button.

[@ImpalamansGarage]

That's because I didn't do it. Sort of a risky move. I need to talk to the kit builder and see if that is really necessary. This button and cover are from the same company and are supposed to work together.

@@ImpalamansGarage Maybe I'm a little too technical and have had some bad experiences with camshafts. I hope it gives you no trouble and runs really good for a long time.
