Are you doing all the machine work yourself?

well we aren't doing machine work on it, but i did have to run a hone on the cam bearing saddles and cylinders, polish the crank and cam, but the heads are not warped, the valves don't need to be ground, the guides are fine, so its just measuring and reassembly from here.
