I'm with Richard, nothing old school about doing it right!!! Doing it right does not require spending a zillion dollars on special tools or trick machining necessarily, it just requires ensuring that the parts you select are compatible and will optimize the performance gained for the money you spend! As a 15 year old kid I remember being totally amazed when Lyle Nelson came over to our "race shop" (aka Dad's garage) and taught us how and why to degree a cam, check bearing clearances, thrust bearing clearance, and a bunch of other little details all of which would (again) maximum the performance and longevity of this engine we had all spent our hard earned money on!!!!
