thanks got alot of work into it. so many modifications have to be done to get everything to fit. these B1 TS Heads are huge.
you got good eyes on the chevy duramax .i love that truck. im not a big fan of the ram diesel trucks. the cockpit is too cheezy for me compared to the chevy interior plus i love the allison transmission.
 
engine bay will be done by friday.oiling system will be plumbed, just waiting for my vacuum pump pulley and mandrel pulley. its really coming together. here;s a few more pictures from today. radiator is also replumbed and reinstalled after i took the pictures;

A couple of suggestions that may help. B1 heads require drain back lines front and rear on each head, they go to the oil pan just below the pan rail. Usually 8an lines. It appears that the holes have been installed already in your heads and from the oil pan pic I saw it has at least rear line provisions. Also it may be an issue where you located the vacuum pump line on the valve cover. They need to be mounted as high as possible (On top of valve cover) Due to the B1's compact valve train design if mounted low it will pump oil right out of the motor very fast. How is that motor setup on rocker oiling? Is the block bushed for push rod oiling or are you using spray bars with oil lines restricted or the third option restricted shaft oiling which is what I use. It is fairly easy to do it with a Keith Black block since they have priority oiling built in the block for the main and rod bearings This is a very crucial part of making these motors reliable. Top end oiling must be setup correct or you will have a ton of oil up there making a mess but not getting to the pushrod tips and burning them as a result which will cause rockers breaking along with other failures. In the pic below you can see how my drain back lines are installed.

my woodie has gotten bigger. We got more stuff done this week and its very close now. just waiting on my instrument cluster bezel to get here by next week and a few carb fittings and its done.and im going to remount the tach up on the dash. i wasnt a fan of low mount tach's.
i need to rescale the car since im 100 lbs. lighter than the old owner.
I misplaced my memory card so couldn't take any more pics.
 
PICTURES WILL BE UP SHORTLY.
made up the oil lines for the pan and installed the radiator.
just waiting on a few -6 an carb fittings and now i need a new mandrel gear for the vacuum pump.need a 1-1/8" 18 tooth.
 
here's some more we got done.
oil tank, oil lines, product engineering fuel regulator with custom mounting bracket.

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!!Oh I know,you'll have it done by SPRING!But which spring?????:upside down::icon_super::3gears::toothy1::pink banana::eusa_dance::pimp_daddy::eusa_clap::naka::pixie::th_krazy::wtg::skier:
 
I noticed you have the front of the drivers side head plugged still, drain lines must be placed just below the pan rail. If not done in that manner it will lead to problems. Just trying to pass along info that came straight from the head designer.
