591821F7-B78A-4279-A815-6A904FA6BDE0 When it comes to building a new Cleveland patience seems to be the most valuable item on the parts list. 

 I retrieved my block and components from the first engine builder when there had been absolutely no progress after 3-4 months. 

 My second engine builder finally delivered my engine  to me after about one full year and Iā€™m very glad I pulled a valve cover for inspection of the new roller rockers. See photo. šŸ˜³šŸ˜”

 That discovery prompted me to take it to my third engine builder with instructions to completely tear down the engine and check all clearances, and reassemble.

 The third machine shop has a engine dyno along with a chassis dyno. The engine dino resulted in 454 hp with 475 foot pounds of torque. 

 Yours may also be a long journey but I hope your results are as good as mine were. šŸ¤žšŸ¤ž
