I would like to finish this weekend but unfortunately I am still short a smaller torque wrench for the intake manifold bolts. I got a cheap one from Jegs coming with the heads but they did not have a 1/4". And of course with no control of money coming in I am on a stand still with that part so it holds up. manifold tightening, coolant refill and burp, and start up. I also need to get my hands on an oil priming tool since I would like to see oil on the new heads before first start and the fact it has been sitting a month. Don't want to be turning crank any more form valve settings or clearance checks until I pump some oil into the bearings. That way any debris from job will get filtered by cycling the oil supply a while and when finally run for a few days or weeks change over the oil and filter.

Its running leaner due to the CAI, the computer needs to relean the fuel trims. Unless you have a scanner to reset them you can unhook your battery for 30 min to clear the memory, then drive it again. it will learn the trims easier that way.

Well I still have not got heads on as I have been recovering from a illness but I think I was able to get MSD wires, cap/rotor, 6al digital box and harness in the meantime. Will try to start work again Sunday.

Dang! You are going to have a nice machine when you are done!

I'm really interested in those 1.6 rocker arms...Mine are still sitting in it's box....If yours fit ok, and you have no problems, then I might get the courage to try mine...

Your going to really like the all MSD IGN. That really woke my truck up. I figure that I don't have to guess what plugs your going to run eh?


Get well, feel better and get r dun!

Autolite 605's of course. As a matter of fact when we each reach 10k miles lets do a plug by plug comparisons for everyone here. The more tech data here the better. could even sticky it. Will update when I check the rocker clearance issue but other user I got them from reported no issues and no push rod mods.
