Re: 383 TPI Dyno runs
-> did a poor mans degree-in and it came up dead on. They missed the 0.1
-> oil squirters to the timing chain too,
Squirters? On a V8? Six cylinders had them, but I've never seen a V8

That can be a real pain in the tail if you're using a very large cam.
I've never had a ground-for-clearance rod fail, but those aftermarket
rods start looking better after you've been grinding a while...
