Heads and cam swap complete!

Everything turned out great the bird runs like a champ!!  :tg: The difference from the HO cam and E7's to the TFS#1 cam and the Edelbrock 6037's is freaking crazy... 

I'm going to take some video of it tomorrow... I'll try and host it on my webspace...

Big thanks out to Nick  ;)  thanks for the phone support buddy  :D ..

Here's a couple of pics I have laying around

I still got some silly  to do like finish painting the gray under the hood near the wipers, neaten up a couple of wires, and nice wash and wax :)

man my old setup was nasty looking... glad to get rid of the gray finally... only took about 8 years for me to paint it  :giggle:

Yo Nick, I tried to call you last night you seem to be having some phone problems  :giggle: 

I need to put my gauge back on the fuel rails for fuel pressure I think its at 40psi, I gapped the plugs at .45 is that ok?, Timing is at 14-15* and what intake hose should I buy? I'll order that today..
