That's great news Rich, what cam are you running? I have to have the heads
in Charlotte Saturday morning (3hr drive) and be back down here for work at
noon (another 3 hrs) all while blazing the highways and byways in mom's '86
S-10 blazer, thankfully it has the earth pounding torque of the mighty 2.8
ltr v6.
Seriously tho, I hope to have everything done in 3 weeks. The heads should
take a week, and after that I'm just waiting on parts to come in. Dave
Hughes *should* have the timing chain and springs, etc in this week
(hopefully), a few more misc items and she'll be back on the street.
I'm still considering a swap to '92 fuel system to get a return fuel line
and adjustable fuel pressure.
14s or bust =)
