Thanks for the well wishes! Dyno was today and though I don't have the sheet yet the initial hp at the wheels was 210. With valve train loss that puts me right about 100hp/ltr. Pretty pleased with that for sure as the intent isn't to build a sprint motor but one that will last a few seasons.

So engine not quite ready and sent the car over for rust abatement. There was a small hole in the floor passenger rear corner l, some other spots on back sections, and various seat and extinguisher mounting holes from 40 years of track driving. So pulled out the offending sections after a thorough inspection and replacing the rear half. Using restoration design panels and a local craftsman familiar with our cars. Really pleased with the progress so far!
