Thanks again for the comments everyone. I'm tired of fixing problems with this thing...I just want it to run! Once again, I'm bitten in the *** by taking a shortcut. I thought about putting that Vic Jr on the motor when I first put it in but got a good deal on the SSR manifold and went that way. Every damn time I do something to save a little bit of money it kicks my *** later. 
Rex & Richard - what does it take to sleeve a cylinder? I'm going to try to package up the engine here in the next day or two and get it shipped out to you.
Kyle - thanks for posting those pics.

Well some good news....this makes me happy.
I'm starting to order new parts
Getting one of these (top one)
and one of these
and a pair of these
and one of these
and finally, one of these
Now I gotta figure out what to do about the fuel lines. I think I'm going to run a new -8 feed line from the tank and convert the current feed line to a return line.

Looks like it's gonna be fun!! I remember Richard spoke highly of the 4 barrel Carb and Vic Jr. when I was doing my build, he really likes that set-up due to some research he's done on it. I wasn't ready to go that route but I'm excited to see how you like it!
