Brings back memories...
I have a feeling it's photoshopped, though. That jack stand doesn't look like it'd support that weight and it'd be sunk into the gravel, almost definitely unevenly.

Picked up the heads Monday a week ago. The Cometic .045" head gaskets were delivered the Saturday prior.
They're actually really smooth. The camera exaggerates the cut grain.
Been too busy to make any progress. I did bolt a head down with nine of the old bolts- three at each end and center, on an original stock gasket to try to measure for pushrods. It was late and things weren't adding up, so I left it and haven't had a chance to get back to it. After pushrods are ordered, I'll clay a chamber to check PTV clearance. Finding modeling clay has proven to be a task at this time. I'll probably end up ordering from Amazon.

Speaking of ordering things, I finally have a gloss black grille on the way. I never bought the one I was watching on Amazon and now they're no longer available. So I jumped on one as soon as I found them on ebay last night.

Do you still have the box? How much for your old one? I hit a crow last year and my JB weld job looks like hell.
