      • Pretty!
        I like to do the valves before putting the intake on so I can see the lifters in the EOIC process, and watch the plungers as I tighten the rocker arms down.

        • Front spring/stance readjustment up next?
          Of all the paths you take in life - make sure a few of them are dirt.

          • the springs have sagged since I installed them, so probably not.

            • Bonus! Not often things work out like that.

                    • I did get a bit more done tonight, but I need to order the right intake gaskets... so it takes a couple more days, it's not suppose to be Corvette weather until July 5th....


                      cute thing, the stock gaskets don't fit because the alignment holes are a bit off
                      if I had an old-style intake, these gaskets would work


                      it is cool that they made them adaptable to either centerbolt heads or parameter bolt; and also, Vortec intakes....



                      and no, they are not going to stay red

                            • There are several lime- green cars running around the Mollala area because of a friend (a painter) who thought that color was the bomb.

                              • SO - given your experience with this TB EFI set up - what sort of engine do you think it would work well on?

                                You and BBR have both gone to EFI and then come back to a carb for different reasons.... hmmmmmm
                                There's always something new to learn.
