chamber volume should be around 48cc and the pippet is graduated to 100cc ... I'll just fill her up and have half for me and half for the heads

1 ounce (1 shot basically) ~ 29.6cc's (29.57353 to be exact). Now, each head combusion chamber is roughly 48cc and my graduated pippet fills to 100cc's, leaving 52cc's. So, if I do a full pippet fill of vodka per each cylinder measurement and I keep the cylinders under 50cc's, that will leave roughly 50cc's per cylinder. 6 cylinders = 300cc's of remaining vodka = roughly 10 shots! That should do the trick

Just take a straw and do the shot out of the chamber. That wastes very little. That's what any real mechanic would do...

So, is that like that Miller High Life commercial where the guy is wrenching on his car, then grabs the powdered donut and takes a bite out of it. Sets it down and there's a big grease stain on the donut. Then the Miller guy says "That's just extra flavor.... to a High Life man."

Quick question: Which cam caps should I use, the 3L units that where removed with the 3L cams (using 2.5L SVT Cams) or the use the ones that where on the Cams? I would imagine that the caps should probably follow the cams from head to head instead of the other way around. I have helped on 3 other 3L hybrid setups, all using SVT cams, but because it wasn't my setup, I didn't question which cam caps where used

The caps are matched to the head, not the cam. Each set of caps is line bored to each set of heads. So make sure you use the caps from the heads you're using and also make sure that they go back in the same orientation and location on each head. I always lay mine out and number them when removing just to make reinstallation easier. I always team up each cap, lifter, and follower together to go back in the same spot and strictly move the cams between heads. Some say the finger follower should go with teh cam, but I haven't seen compelling evidence of that yet.
