Just to give another update:
Still waiting on my motor to be done being built before Jotech can do the rest of the build.
The original plan back in August was to have a local shop do the motor build and assembly and to send CNC Werx the block to do the Cylinder Support System closed deck modifications. But, the original local shop was not communicating well and had a few other Jotech motors still in queue (including mine) so Jotech decided to get my motor back from them around the middle of October and let CNC Werx do both their closed deck modification as well as all the other machining for the motor build and assembly. After a few delays (thanks Covid), they were able to get the tooling needed for the head stud conversion and to start assembly soon.
Now that all the machining is done, they're in the middle of assembly where they've hit a snag on the original head studs we were going to use. They recommended that we go with the ARP 625+ head studs instead so Jotech is currently trying to source those (out of stock; again thanks Covid) so CNC Werx can finish their portion and get the motor back to Jotech.
