Heads came in! They look pretty clean, as they should for 30k miles! lol. Looks like the best method for cleaning off the old gasket is plastic scraper followed by scotchbrite and wd40 or brake cleaner eh?
Bought some air fittings and electrical stuff for the PCV and fuel system also. Im thinking Ill send my ECM to Frost in short order. Hopefully this will fire up this month!

Lol ok I can manage that.
LS6 yellow springs are on my 317s and I have to say, that its by far the easiest thing Ive done during this build. Ive never done them before tonight, was such a relief to get something easy for once haha

You cutting the trap door for the fuel pump install? I think that's the first project I'm going to tackle...maybe here in the next week or so. I'll be curious to hear how yours goes.
