    Finally got some more done. I picked up the pistons last wed and dropped everything off at the machine shop. We worked on it all day. Got the balance done, pistons pin fit, sleeves set and ready for honing and pistons and rods put together. Hopefully running by next weekend.

    In the second picture, with the piston, what is being done there?

    Part of the rotating assembly balancing procedure. Taking material away from the heavier pistons until they all weigh the same.

    Question, I don't see any notches in the pistons for valve clearance?

    Why do I need them? I have no clearance issues.

    I guess I;m just used to seeing pistons for stage 2 heads. I am assuming I will have to notch mine.

    Did not make it to the dyno due to the weather. But did prove my point.
