Swapping heads and cam..With pics!!

ok got the front cover on
..and the new gasket..thanks shane (LS1W)...
New lifters and ls2 lifter tray's went in.
the cam went in pretty smooth..just keep turning it...
ran into problem..trying to put on the balancer with the ols bolt
it dosent seem to catch the threads..but when i use my 1' longer crank bolt..i get it.
so could i force the balancer on the crank more so the old bolt can catch the threads?

sorry guys i had a delay..it seems i got the wrong head bolts from APR..I got the gen 4 head bolts and not Gen3
.. so any way now its starting to look like a car and not a pile of crap..
so if anyone needs a gen 4 head bolt set..get mines for $60 instead of $105..never torqued down just greased up
now for some new pics
Rockers Installed

Ok ran into a problem..Since the person that did my exhaust welded the collector to the pipe..Its very hard to get the headers on..AND I had to break the hangar loose to remove the heads and push the header out of the way
Any ideas on how to bolt the header on..The pass side didnt break loose so it bolted back up..The driver side is the problem..Since the whole pipe is laying on the floor???
