How are the sprockets? Sometimes when the chain stretches it wears the sprockets and makes the teeth skinnier and sloppy with a new chain.

The wear is in the primary chain, so I think the cam phaser gears will be ok. Everything else in the cam drive is being replaced. Here's what one of the primary idler gears looked like:

Yeah, it's hard to tell, but I like what you did with your fingerprint.
That will be rewarding to get back together.

Congratulations! Enjoy it. Most people could not get one of those apart and back together again in running condition.
I gotta find the picture of the rods sticking out of my block on a 588ci bbc.
Does that count?

Any diesels? VW TDI?

Nah, you're just seeing the discoloration from the springs etc, the oil looks clear to me.

It is a 355. I changed it to a custom ground blower roller cam, Pro-Filer 195 heads and the magnuson MP122 supercharger.

Very nice! What numbers are you looking to get?

Well the engine edelbrock sells with the same blower on it makes 507hp. That engine has lesser heads and cam and is running the stock pulley configuration. We have much better heads and cam and switched to the 3.2 pulley so we are thinking around 550hp at 5lbs of boost. The stock pulley makes 5 pounds of boost on the edelbrock engine but only made 3 pounds on our engine because of the better flowing heads and cam. This little supercharger is capable of up to 15 pounds of boost from what I understand but this engines bottom end wont handle that much boost.
