Did you send your block, etc. in for exchange?

Also, with everything else you are doing at the same time, no desire to pursue ported head?
I purchased the block directly from @Two Step Performance. This way I'll have my spare factory block should I ever want to pursue building it, or just as a backup. I did not opt for the porting since I'll be remaining on the factory camshaft. The porting and cams far exceed my goals, but if I get antsy in the future, I'll always have the option to send the head out for machining/porting.

Yeah I told him to hold off on the camshafts and head since he is not going for big power. And he is not revving to the moon either. Plus his other choice of mods don’t really support taking it that far. The stock head has been proven to over 600whp.

So this just showed up at work. It's taking everything in me not to just install it right now! I've got a responsibility to the community to make an install video, and I can't until this weekend ? The box weights more than the contents!

You're a good man, Ben. I will NOT give out your name when my wife demands to know who influenced me to buy all these parts...
My favorite part about this is that their is an ad on your response for @Two Step Performance ! Don't tell the wife about Corey either!!!! He's the enabler!!!! ;)
