I am going to be using Calles Compstar H beam rods, I have Mahle pistons, a prepped Steel Boss 302 crank, ATI Balancer, McLeod Aluminum Flywheel all of which will be internally balanced. A unique cam drive setup from Roush. Lightend polished lifters, custom ground cam to match the flow of my heads. Everything on the block is already ARP studded, but I am going to step up to 7/16 rocker studs, and change the fulcrums in the Crower Rockers to acomodate the larger studs. I am also considering having the locations of all the lifter bores checked, indexed and relocated as necessary. This is commom practice in Sprint Cup. The teams do this to their blocks to assure the cam timing events are precisely the same in all cylinders. I enjoy discussing the technology of the upper end engine building practices although they are seldom are made available.
