She's Alive!
 
A couple weeks ago the car went under the knife. I was takling a Heads/Cam install.

Here are a few pictures of the progress. I'm just touching up the last finishing details tonight, and the car is scheduled to get tuned next week.

Just for the record, I couldn't get the rails to work, so in frustration I used the stock rails just to start the car. I'll be getting the aftermarket rails on eventually!

(VIDEO IN SECOND POST!!!)

So I'll sleep better at night. Lol, seriously though, I bought the heads with it on, and added a little extra. It shouldn't hurt things.

The car maybe had 300 miles on that oil, which made it really clean. Helped that I washed my hands before the cam came out.

I got the PCM cover from Specialized Stainless. It's the brushed version.
