Those wheels are AT Italia Rivas. I have them on one of my cars. Nice looking, but very soft. I've bent 5 of them.

More pics, the powder coating came out great.
I stole the color combo from Dwayne.







I had a issue with one of the heads, it had to come back off, so that set me back a few days, but progress is being made.
I got the cams timed with the dial indicator today, so it is ready for the intake and cam covers, maybe Monday.

I am going to take the new cam gears back off to install new drive hubs as soon as they get here, just got tired of waiting.

Good point.
I do not have a used belt, maybe I will keep one next time.

I always cut them once I get them off the car so there is no chance of some one getting the belts mixed up.

It is not a big deal to check them, and I also have one of Kens 32V'r, I may use it when I change the hubs out.
