Pulled the head off tonight, got the turbo sorted, manifold mounted to the head,
stupid oil filter in the block, and the head back on the car, torqued to 92ft-lbs. Fiddled with a few other things and just called it good. Thanks for the hand tonight Rosey!
Now the bad news. *one* of the tappets I need is on backorder, but the warehouse waited until too late in the day to call brookdale back to inform them this, so I tried to order the other two that I need, but they cannot be here till monday. Once the new tappets come in I'm going to see what I can do rearranging stuff but Gosh, DB, and MAP no one has this size tappet. Boo.
Todo list is getting smaller than the list of stuff done finally, I'd love to fire it up this weekend but I might just have to do everything but the cams, sigh. Stupid tappets make me want to stabby stab! Fingers crossed for a miracle.
