what time you want to start tomorrow? I have a bunch of tools i can bring with me seeing how you are a bit under par with the collection....

 

[Lordgufi]

basically i just need a universal joint to get the valve covers off. and if you have them a few half inch extentions. Hopefully the little impact that ears brought over will be enough to get the H pipe off the car.

what else was i missing?

 

[02gt]

maybe a TQ wrench for the heads, i dont have one, i guess i'll bring some boxes so you can place all the same stuff in the boxes....

Awesome! I love seeing new parts! Make sure you keep everything you take off marked. Don't be unorganized. Ziplock baggies and a black marker will save you alot of time and energy in the long run. If I were you I'd keep Ears away from that thing, lol!

Well If you need a Tq wrench I have a $300 Snap-On that will have to take full responsibility for for. The track record of the club barrowing mine tools isn't going very well. I loaned my code scanner out and haven't heard from the user in at least 3 months.

Anyway good luck with the build. Take your time and make sure everything is right before you move on to the next step. That way you won't have to do things twice.

 

[Lordgufi]

if your willing to allow me to borrow that tool i'll find a way to come pick it up some time if ya didn't mind.

i'd definatly return it. hell ive had the reciept for this valve spring compressor for a month now just so i can return it ( once i install the rest of the valves ).

i should have got a picture of those installed.

 

[Lordgufi]

Oh how about this. i give you my tuner for the tq wrench as collateral

 

[boostedmach]

Looks like fun! Nothing like bolting on some HP!

 

[joker]

wish i could be there...and y do u have to get the h pipe off

 

[Lordgufi]

exhaust manifolds come off easier when the heads are out of the car

 

[ears]

so how far did you get after we left??

its all good orange,,, 3 heads are better than one!!

 

[Lordgufi]

more progress

All 16 valves installed with Trick flow springs and .080 cut intake valves

 

[ears]

[Lordgufi]

cams are not going in untill the heads are on the car. 0 chance of bolting it down in the wrong position
