2-3 weeks from now would be sooner but changing out the valve springs is time consuming

2-3 weeks not bad! Perfect timing for hopefully some nicer weather. Glad to see everything coming along well. We'll have to see how much of a head start I'll need now! Enjoy bro.

Do you have any pics of the rod bearing it be nice to see how these bearing are doing in supercharged cars. We seen the sc bearing from a 80k+ miles car. You do a good amount of drag racing right? be nice to see how they held up to that type of driving
