I had a machinre shop fill it. Not sure what they used but it's been fine for over 5 yrs. I had another machine shop cnc me a spacer to place the rew tb in its stock location so linkage worked and oil neck cleared. Now with the rotary works 90mm I decidedto drop the spacer and make a custom oil neck

Thanks for all the info SK8!!! A last couple of questions, do you have any idle issues? Ive heard of some idle issues and am apprehensive, I seem to have bad luck, lol. I'm curious how it is on a street FD. Thanks so much and sorry for filling your build thread with crap, haha

Blew intake gasket before we even made 1 full pull.didnt sound good when it happened. But motor is fine. It was my fault I left 2 bolts out the lower intake and others were not very tight. I never went back over them from test fitting.😁
