The rocker shims came on Friday and the 9.050" pushrods came in yesterday. I had some time to figure out the shim thickness on a few cylinders and came to the conclusion that .010" shims were good to get plunger travel to about .050" .
So......
I'll get the intake put on today and maybe get the run stand pushed over tonight.
Seriously, after 3 months and 4 days since this project started, I am emotionally DONE with this ride. It better run and stay together for a while!
There's also about to be a 7th 7.3L in the stable.
