    Replaced the o rings and pintle caps on my 24lb injectors. Ended up breaking 1 pintle cap, of course the kit came with 1 extra o ring instead of 1 extra cap. Trying to get into contact with the company i purchased them from. Vice with a screw to removed the pressed in filters.

    Got the heads bolted on last night. Time for some valve train geometry. Does anyone know what the torque should be on these rocker bolts with the girdle? I just want to double check them all.

    Well i sent some emails back and forth to a guy name Tom Moss. I guess he does a lot of porting work on intakes and heads. He said the GT-40 tube flows around 260 CFM and will produce peak power at 5k. So it doesnt sound like its going to be too detrimental to my setup. So for the cost savings...

    Did some more work tonight. Got the timing cover and water pump installed. Found some gasket sticking out of the new water pump shaft. Hope its not junk. We will see.

    I actually have already installed an adjustable quadrant. Ever since i bought the car the clutch has been very hard. I broke the stock setup. I will look into the ram. Thats another clutch i heard about on line with some decent reviews.
