Here is a pic of a little bit of the silver color wiring loom I am putting in. I don't think I'm going to use much more of the silver, and I have most of the wiring condensed to one spot on both sides. It's starting to look a lot cleaner, a few of the wires I lengthened and ran under the frame rail out of view. This is a work-in-progress pic, it's not finished by a long shot.

There is that Flo-Rida accent comin through. Yes Sir.

Well, cam will be here Thursday or Friday at about 5:30-6 o'clock. Monday it's going to the machine shop to make sure it fits and all that jazz. Tuesday I will order the springs and rods. Then next Tuesday I'll get the rockers. I think I'm going to use the Crane Energizer 1.6's. Then after I get all the valvetrain stuff in, Ill see about getting the shop paid off and get my motor back. Then the week after that, I'll have them get me that new head and fix the old one, too. Then maybe I can order then darn bearings and start getting it short blocked and up on the stand.

See, I knew you'd start cleaning out that engine bay. All those wires and hoses just look so hideous you can't let them be!

It's looking really good. The last pic was kinda hard to see though...

Yeah, I'm sorry for the crappy pictures. All I have to take pictures with is a cell phone with no zoom or anything like that. I am getting a digital camera here soon, so that way i can get video and pictures of it and all that good stuff.

I have got my headers painted. Took my little Dremel tool and used a miniature wire brush on it and got down in all the little cracks and crevasses. Look good? I used 2000 degree header paint with Ceramic.

What rear housing are we talking about? I also just now got a shipment in from UPS. My Trick Flow Stage 1 cam. I never knew that Trick Flow cams were built by Crane Cams...It's got the Trick Flow part number engraved on the end of it and on the spec sheet it says Trick Flow by Crane Cams... HHMMM cool.

The more ideas you guys give me the better off I will be.

AHH... I painted the rear end when I did the suspension upgrades. I didn't post anything up about that stuff... It's got the KYB and Steeda lowering and handling package on it with some stronger sway bars.

It's a little dusty right now, but it's nice and shiny when it gets cleaned up. Ill get more pics of all that stuff tomorrow, it's freezing right now!
