Update: It was rather nice out, so I opened the garage, cranked the music, and put my head down. I ran into a few hang-ups here n there, but got past them. by the time I was done, I ran outta things to install. Head is assembled, lifters, rockers, cams installed, cam angle sensor, gears, timing belt, vacuum lines, fpr, return line, fuel filter, and new lines made for that, and installed, catch can setup, upper ic pipe, tstat lines and wiring, fuel rail, injectors, clips, wiring, sensors, radiator hoses, etc etc etc. Basically, I am at a stand still, and ran outta parts.
