Now I am getting somewhere....
Check out cylinder #3....these valvesprings are going to hate me.
Got the driver's head torqued down today. Good feeling when I turned the motor over by hand and the valves cleared. ![]() The closest the motor has been to under the car....

Re: Now I am getting somewhere....
And today....
Front cover is on, power steering pump is on, removed stock clutch master cylinder, cleaned rear cover, removed stock torque arm. Didn't spend much time out there today....damn weather was crap until about 3PM. This piece had so much flex, no wonder they say a good torque arm is a good thing.
