Thanks, nice writeup. I especially like the tip about keeping each cyl at TDC while pressurized. In the past, I've always just turned on the air flow and let the engine rotate to BDC. I guess I've just been lucky to never lose air pressure and drop a valve down into the cyl.
I may bug you with a PM if the need arises, if you don't mind.
Your car sounds good with those cams!!
Again, many thanks!
