manikbastrd also hooked me up with a New A/C compressor, and alternator. The motor only run for about 3 hours before being pulled due to the car being damage/totaled from shipping it to the west coast. The motor was build by the same guy who built the "Purple Monster." I rechecked all the clearances that I could using the FSM, everything up to spec.

Ok back to my build, here are some engine pic's.
The head is off 923/2000. The head surface was decked, I replaced the stem seals. I cleaned and reuse the valves, and Crower Springs.
This is a bad pic, but it shows the OEM MLS head gasket coated in copper spray.
