Unsure of rubber, that the last thing on my mind atm, the first thing on my mind is getting these bumperette iron made up!

Guys been working on the engine as of late, got the EMS IQ4 sitting on the shelf with all the loom and laptop lead and hand controller, also been around to see how my head is coming along, the inlet manifold is almost ready and the head is stripped and cleaned ready for my new oversized stainless valves, double springs with titanuim retainers and locks(10 deg), new cam build by Ivan Tighe is sitting there ready to set up(0.505" lift), im just happy as, also turbo kit is in and ready to whack in the turbo, the wheels have been cleaned up and its ready to go back together, now just have to get the block ready to be sent off
Ill think of more later and pop back in!

Ok a few pics of the parts going into/onto my new head, being built by JUSTHEAD'S in VIC, new lash follows, all new stainless over sized valve(by heaps) double springs, titanium retainers, 10 degree locks, Manley rockers, new(hard to find) bearings, Tighe custom 0.500" plus lift cam(not naming spec), and the head is getting ported as we speak, just about to go drop all this stuff off!

Power set to start at about 3k(but yet to be confrimed, its a copy grind from a US pattern), but with the antilag i will boost at about 2k, so its gunna be fun to see what happens
As for the valves, there the same size valve as the maximum you can fit into a 289/302 head!
