        apologies to the OP as the thread has moved away from the original topic.

        So Adrian, your aluminum block is secured by only the two bolts where the cam towers would normally mount, or are there a couple more on the other side?

        What's the single big cap bolt on the sloped surface doing?

        Do you have the bar slotted to allow for some adjustability?

          The block is held down by 4 bolts, it fits in place of the camshaft "tower". the big cap head bolt is the spring compressor. the bar is not slotted, it is drilled and tapped to line up exactly with the valve. BigD-83 i can PM you some more detailed pics and dimension drawings if you are that interested.

              I have the idea, but would appreciate a drawing if it's not a bother. Thanks

                No problem. I just wish there was a thread on his aluminum block while I was waiting a week for my Lisle tool to arrive.

                  If you don't mind, you should just pot detailed pics and drawings on here. I'll post my drawing when I have some free time.

                      It wouldn't let me attach more than one photo per post so here's my drawing.
