Im such a dumbass...lol

lol its all good... ur just too excited about the build! lol

Dustin one thing I need to question you on the fact that you have your bearings already, and you said arp hardware is in the mail! What ever you do buddy make sure that this James guy resizes your rods and does a fresh linehone because by installing the rod/main bolts it changes all the the clearances. Not sure if ya knew that which you probly do, just looking out for a fellow chevy brother!! On another note, looks like you got a bunch of goodies! Thing should haul some ass
