A lot has happened:

Like not being able to remove the oil gallery plug... (see ruined tool and weld to plug that was there since 1975):

I've plumbed a little and built an accessory drive:

I've cut studs and de-installed some plumbing to get ready to chain the beast:

And last but not least, I welded valve covers and made room for wastegates and fittings...please don't make fun of my welding, I taught myself out of a book. ;) Really .
