No I didn’t have to touch the tunnel but talk about a tight fit. I was crossing my fingers the whole time that it would just fit as is. Supposedly the CSR is made so you don’t have to modify the tunnel. I think its kinda true and maybe kinda false. But I’ll know more when I take it out to see if its making any thumping noises against the tunnel. Had to change a few things around because of it but I guess if I ever need it I’ll be glad I went through the trouble. I’m glad you like the heads Jay lol. Captain morgan, the old setup is scattered throughout the USA. Ebayed most of it and sold the block local to some guy putting it in a ratrod. We got most of it buttoned up right now. Cars off the stands and back in the garage. Everything underneath is done.
