Sorry about the pics guys. They were hosted on LS1camaro .net and they shut down. Hard drive has since crashed and I don't have those particular ones anymore. As for the motor, I still have everything, and believe it or not, I just now recieved the custom valve covers from ETP. Only problem is, they sent me ones with o-ring grooves, and my heads already had the grooves. Now I have to get the grooves tig'd up and resurfaced since ET has decided that this will be the only set for a while. For the life of me, I wish I had kept my 383 that was in and running 2 years ago. This custom **** is killing my "want" to go fast. I hardly have the desire anymore, but I'm sure it will come back once I get it going. It just sucks saving weeks for a part, only to have it take months to get here once you order. Multiply that by 10 or so custom parts, and time melts away fast.

Those last 3 posts...I know EXACTLY what you mean. I took your buddies car apart almost 6 YEARS ago...I just started it last week, still having problems with it...is that damn car cursed?

It ALL started with a 3.750 stroke crank, look at me now!

Not yet. I need to take some with the new valve covers and billet coil brakets. Or I could just take a pic of my 3rd bedroom, it is my motor with a computer in the corner.
