Just when I got the EFI and Elec fans dialed in... Time to tear it down and rebuild it.
Harbor freight wheel dollies made it easy to turn her sideways. Just picked at it all day pulling things off

Stopped by the engine shop yesterday, they were able to save my block, so that's good news.. however, my Harland Sharp rocker arms feel gritty and worn in the trunnions. Either need to send them back for rebuild or buy a different set. Giving Bullet cams a shot this go round for the cam shaft.

If they are structurally sound I would rebuild the rockers. You could probably get a kit but if you let them do it it should have warranty.

They are boxed up and heading back to Harland Sharp for inspection and rebuild.

Since the Harland Sharps are in for rebuild, I picked up a set of COMP Cams 1820-16 - COMP Cams Ultra Pro Magnum XD Roller Rocker Arms. It's what my engine builder is recommending so might as well.

I will usually let well-behaved kids sit in the car at shows for pix and more than a few have asked me what the window cranks are for LOL.

That’s really cool DaddyO….😁
I’d fall over dead if some young kid said “ Hey that’s groovy “
I guess this stuff comes with age?
Like knowing where the gas fill is on a 57 Chevy?
I remember pumping gas for men that never left the house without a hat, most likely a fedora.
