Yea the whole waiting for the cam to ship set me back almost a week but shes coming along

 

[TorqueAutoMotiv]

Alright cams in heads are on back covers on lim is on and on monday the rest gets put on and tues i will have the car towed in for install hopefully weds she will be fired up.... The blower isnt bolted on just there to block off the opening

 

[TorqueAutoMotiv]

SO whats better the stock timing chain or the jp single I have both and I honestly dont have time to wait on a double It just cant happen

 

[Iron Indian]

I'd stick with the stocker if I were you

 

[TorqueAutoMotiv]

ok thanks ill put the stocker on and sell the other one i guess or return it for the double timing chain

 

[SDGTP99]

Coming together very nicely. You'll enjoy it when your finished.

 

[TorqueAutoMotiv]

Starting to think i wanna put it in a fiero Ofcourse I wouldnt but that may be my next project

 

[TorqueAutoMotiv]

Very little progress today as getting the timing chain lined up proved tp be a b1tch
and then the crank bolt got stuck and we found it was crossthreaded (damaged the threads when pulley was removed)

Heres the retapped but still ugly crank threads

 

[TorqueAutoMotiv]

Ok heres pretty much the finished product only lost maybe a couple bolts and or studs
Tomorow we drop it in and fridy fire it up and see....

 

[OH4CompG]

Looking good man! I gotta say one thing though..... All that and you're not going headers?

 

[TorqueAutoMotiv]

The cracked head issue kinda took my header money headers and meth in january

 

[Lawngoose]

I am really enjoying this thread. Looks great!

 

[TorqueAutoMotiv]

Yea hopefully all goes well Ill have some video of it running tomorrow

Still have a few loose ends and then install

Now i got the intence pcm and its a fresh rebuild I will also have a tech2 hooked up
Will i have to do a relearn or anything special during start up

 

[badbrad]

congrates on your build, maybe i'll have 1 in the coming year. did u do any gasket matching or bowl work on the heads??????? again congrate to u.

 

[TorqueAutoMotiv]

the heads i bought to replace my cracked one were hand ported but im gonna say it was a mild port job
Back story on them is they are intense heads but no telling

 

[TorqueAutoMotiv]

Well no school till monday so that puts me 2 days behind I was really hoping to have it in and fired today
