Cam got here today. Old cam out, new in (easy with the engine upside down on a stand) rockers, pushrods, front cover and valve covers done.




I think I gave myself a hernia torquing down the damn crank pulley. Left it here for the night. I should have it running this weekend.

Every time I post a pic of the floor someone asks about it. Rustoleum. Works great. Not to hard to apply.

I agree. I like my floor really makes clean up a breeze. I have made some serious mess with the engine swap.

Cam is an Lingenfelter grind. GT7 208/230 .554/.556 121 LSA

Spent three more hours on it tonight. The engine just slide in perfectly. Got the tranny, TC and motor mounts bolted up. Rear grounds, cam sensor and such plugged up. Filled her with oil and tranny fluid (changed the trans pan while at it) Hope the rest goes so well.
