Default My UMW 3.8L Twin Plug

One major benefit of Kevin being local, is I got a personal show-and-tell from the master himself regarding my new engine

Kevin dropped off some of my new parts for me to photograph and to explain all the magic bits he's done.

To start things off, here are some pics of one of the heads, which have been ported, welded, and upgraded to larger valves and twin plugs. They are now being machined to accept the 3.8L pistons, so that part was not done when I took the pictures. Also, you can see Kevin's ultimate flame-ring!
