X-mas in April??

Well all my new internals are in.. Along with my BOV and TPI throttle body.. Im pretty excited.. Almost hugged the UPS guy lol... My block and heads are at the shop waiting to be worked.. The block is getting bored .040 over, magnafluxed, acid bathed, honed and some other goodies... Heads are getting a full port and polish. I can wait to start assembly...

The third pic is of the neutrally balanced flywheel. They said I need it with this crank and such.. Its pretty light.. maybe 5lbs..

That's a flex plate, not a flywheel. And most flex plates are light at about 5 lbs.
