Sounds like billet input/output shaft and red clutches. Hopefully you got a Billet converter..

Thinking about just going with new heads. This far in I don't feel comfortable using anything with cam journal damage causing oil pressure loss. By the time I send the heads off to get remanned and bearings put in, I could buy a new set. Looking at these.

Going with the windsor 13 bolt casting so no tapping will be required. Need to call monday to make sure they are the 8 threaded chambers (pretty sure they are, just want to double check before ordering).
