I painted the block
Finally started opening boxes
Hats off to CNC Motorsports. Tolerances were damn near perfect.
I gapped the piston rings with the old school manual grind wheel. It took a really long time. Opened them up enough for some boost later on.
Only one minor clearance issue. Shaved it down easy peasy then had to clean everything again.
Coming together, slowly. Wish I took more pictures, but hands always dirty/oily.
Waiting on some TTI headers to get ceramic coated. (4-5 weeks) I think they got messed up by the fires in California a couple weeks ago. Anyways, thanks for looking.

I have absolutely no idea about of any of this but it looks cool and it looks like you're enjoying it, go you!

1l ≈ 1.1 us quarts or 1.8 imperial pints

That's wrong, quarts are a bigger volume than L! 1 L = 0.8798 quarts! The pints to L is correct though.

Awesome. I'm looking forward to a similar project with a 5.7

Add 3-4 weeks on your timeline to everything requires human work. machine shop/ pistons / exhaust work. The only thing that was fast was parts small orders from Jegs/Summit/ mopar oem etc. And buy some quart/gallon freezer bags to LABEL and BAG every single friggin bolt/part you take off. Don't buy anything at a chain automotive store. Amazon is cheaper
