I bought my Dove TW in 1991 and it needed a huge amount of "tweeking" as Barry says. Pushrod holes, bolt holes and angle to heads/rails all over the place. It was I think the 7th or 8th out of the tooling and was a mess. I also waited about 5 months to get it. Held up my engine assembly.
Casting flash all over the seams needed grinding and filing and of course port matching. I wish Art at Blue Thunder had made one-it would be flawless.
Wasn't porus though and has lasted fine all this time.
