Just got my gutted intake manifold installed. Had it powder coated black. Engine is just about finished. Still some tuning to do & a trip to the dyno hopefully by the end of next week.



COPPER HEADGASKETS

ADJUSTABLE CAM GEARS INSTALLED

WHAT'S WRONG WITH THESE TWO PICTURES?????

Ok, if you haven't figured it out by now.........in my haste to reassemble my engine after installing the copper headgaskets I put the valve covers on the wrong sides. No problem though. I had to take the intake & valve covers back off to retorque the heads after letting the engine reach operating temperature so I swapped them back at that time. Rookie mistake though.
