Pretty stuff! Thanks for sharing how you check piston & deck clearance with the red clay.

Also notice the thermostat blockoff RSR piece. That means this engine will be running an oil filter console, or will the oil cooler simply be flowing at all times?

I like how the small displacement engines have so much "meat" around the piston bores. The larger displacement engines have always bugged me with how close are the head stud holes to the piston bore OD.
