Well Case dropped off my block at the machine shop for me yesterday. I need to order my cam for the machinist now. Should be about a month to get it back, he's pretty busy right now. Have no idea on cost, but I don't have much of a choice on that at the moment.

It is always a good idea to check in with your tuner on CAM specs.

Not much happening lately. Engine is still at the machine shop. I ordered my new Intense Racing stage 2 turbo cam, but they were out of stock, so it needs made. So that's about a 2 week wait. My heads are getting sent to them for their stage 1 work of cleaning and porting, upgrading springs, and other goodies. John said the stage 2 cam was a good match for the stage 1 heads, so I'm in the clear for that at least.

Kinda unrelated, but not really. I finally got my 'knee sock' (as I like to call it) tattoo done. Flowers and 3800 parts.
