It was pretty nice to find an Andrews EV51 cam and adjustable pushrods in it! Going to finish up the engine tear down tomorrow night and try to get the heads to the porter for a quick porting, guides and seals.

Pistons lookin nice and clean. Hvae you decided on what colors you gonna have Joe throw down on the frame?? What about the tins?

That would look killer if you do blue tins and silver PC frame and PC all the Chrome Silver including the rims.

Silver frame, white base on tins with a deep blue candy, maybe ghost in some scallops, flames or trible flames in silver.

I was able to get another couple hours in on it today. I got the front tire mounted up. Just waiting on the fender to fit it up and tear down the front end for powder. The Engine is out, going to work on getting the trans out tomorrow night if I get some time.

Are you planning on cutting up the frame or its component locations to move/relocate them? I can't wait to see the blue you choose to do the frame in. Are you doing the whole bike in blue?
