So I got these in the other day and I must say I'm impressed with the quality of the machining, packaging, and overall presentation. These look incredible in person, and I can't wait to get them on the car. Looking into one of the holes I see that they came pre-lubed, so it seems eurojet cares about the functionality as well, not just the good looks[] BTW these are the eurojet "Kugel" DV's

Can we really not edit previous posts now? If so, I made all of those "saved" posts pointlessly

Not a whole lot of progress, but I got a couple things to spruce up the shop a little[]



Got a clock for the shop




Other than that, I pulled all the trim in the car, which is going to replaced with carbon fiber. I guess I should say I almost pulled all of the trim cause I quit before I got the long piece on the dashboard all the way off.

I'm super-impressed, FWIW. I'd love to have setup shop like you've been able to do.

Thanks for all the details photos. Pls. keep 'em coming.

I think your clock cost more than the mods on my car....

I've got completed heads with 1mm oversize valves, the springs/retainers etc, but I haven't had time to pick them up or take any pictures yet. I'll be taking my bottom end to get balanced hopefully over the next week, then will come reassembly. I've got to find a Bosch alternator core so I can get that rebuilt in the meantime as well. Also, there's been a huge change in plans, and the thread will be updated about that when it's 100%
