ANOTHER trip to MED today (i live to close) lol.....
todays purchases were crank sensor bracket, trigger pulley, bigger supercharger crank pulley for more boost, new upgraded crank pulley bolt and gearbox to block bolts.

How much was the head gasket?

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

so close to being done now!
torqued head down. just got to modify the rocker cover to miss the two extra head studs and set tappets....
then flywheel/clutch assembly is off the MED on monday to be all balanced up and that side will be complete next week *happy*
best start saving for the miglia exhaust now.....

Are you using t bars? On mine, they bottomed out before the rocker was tightened up.

I had a bar pop out slide into the four blade and get shot into a new 2 core... Never used them since.

It bent the fan and sounded like the gearbox had exploded.. Not nice.

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

They do look good.
