plugged pretty solidly.... This is the return plunger oil drain for the VVL' date=' with this plugged, the VVL follower can't engage, because it can't push against this slug.

Slug is quite accurate, on this VVL follower, when the VVL was pushed, I had to apply substantial effort, and when I did a solid crud slug popped out...

 

 

It wasn't always the return plunger, below is the feed hole to the VVL actuator...

not going to get a lot of movement when it is substantially clogged.

chambers_finished_volumes_shown.jpg

 

porting and chamber blending all finished, with the new Supertech valves, the chamber volume has grown to 41.3-41.4 cc per chamber... now the head goes out and gets re-surfaced .004". This should shrink the chambers back to about 39.5cc after the cut.
