. I have been a T-shirt guy since I was about 6 years old, I have plenty of old "holey" T-shirts to spare, plus they don't seem to leave lint behind like the blue shop towels
most of the rest of my parts are in the large baggies - working in garage and crap blows in all the time, trying my best to keep parts clean - dog, cats you name it where I live

Soft, what are the 4 drill point indicator marks for in the boss where the crank comes thru in post 266? Al, your pictures pop up now as compared to the first page. Made a real difference and 266 is good enough to print money. What did you do for ever one to know..

That is the torque sequence for tightening.
Edit: Now I see. Not really sure. Mght be a timing mark thing. They are not on the SE plate.

I have already gone through a roll of those shop towels already, never thought it would be so messy.

I meant the towels the wife puts in the bathroom you're not allowed to use.

Got some hardware back today: here is a pic of the combustion chamber of one of the cylinder heads, Intake valve was upgraded from 1.805" to 1.900", the Exhaust valve was kept at the stock size of 1.575", the deck was milled .032" to achieve an 83.3 cc volume that should put the static compression a shade over 10.5:1, heads were CNC'ed, ported, along with valve/guide job.
A pic of the intake area:
