Now onto the new stuff. After working all weekend I was able to go back into the shop to continue on with the motor. My brother had previously snapped ring #2 so we were waiting on a new set from Wiseco. As soon as that showed up I got to work, and here was my progress in two short working days. Hope you like

Oil pump and studs going in

Everyone loves headstud shots!!

Freshened heads, new valve stem seals

On with the first one

Now we're talking

Lower mani goes on

Cams going in

New water hoses, pulleys, water pump, etc

Valve covers, coolant lines going on

Cam gears, covers, dirty (newer) motor mounts on

More Cover shots

Upper manifold on

Set some more shit on to make it look pretty

Made my own EGR blockoff plates while I was at it!

Some side notes: I did not install the timing belt because I noticed the bearings felt kind of weak in my secondary idler pulley. It was wednesday so by the time I ordered a new pulley obviously it isnt going to get to me for a few days. This is where I am at with the engine currently, as I am also waiting on my Z1 stage 2 turbos to show up. Hopefully They'll be showing up this week!

Thanks guys (and streetneeds!)
