Got the new cutlass bearings in and re aligned the strut to shaft log . I used a 1" hose and split it to center the shaft into the shaft log while tightening it up . I used 3 washers as shims in the back to tilt it up . But later found that the shaft wanted a little movement to rest and not tighten up if the engine were to settle down in the mounts .

The hose trick really worked great and the new shaft lined up perfect !

Heads are still not ready , had to buy a height micrometer to set valve spring height , I was using calipers and it was making my second guess my work .

I also bought DUI dizzy from performance distributors and some live wires , but comp cams dizzy gear they sent us wrong so waiting on mail now . But man I'm so ready to hear this thing !
