Good to see it's all happening.

Have you ordered the correct valve springs for the cam as your haven't put it on your list. Just a thought.
heads come complete heads and cam should be a good match ;)

Well done Simon ... keep at it

Just a thought .... is it worth putting a new fuel line in all the way from the tank ?? ... be a piece of p### at this stage

i have so far replaced the fuel line from the carb down to the bottom of the bulkhead with a better flow fuel pump and a bigger filter,just need it from the bulkhead to the tank now :thumbright:

Si, do those heads include adjustable rocker assembly, it might not need it as the cam is very mild especially in a 400+ci stroker motor, but you may still need the adjustabillity to get the correct valve train alignment.

Woohoo Si, lookin good. Bet you can't wait to get that lot bolted on. Same deal for me with leaf springs, rather than replace I just had them retempered.

What is in that bottom box though?

Did you end up getting adjustable rockers? I've got procomp rockers for my stroker, not tested yet but I've heard bad things about them. :(
