Default New Goodies Installed :)......

b4 i get into it. found a few things that were bad in my motor.... the pass side head gasket was rusted, in turn leaking some coolant,a lifter in cyl.7 was gouged out in 2 spots causing it to scar the cam. and my springs were shot. i could compress them w/ my hand. and lastly pass side head was warped .012 and driver side was warped .009 so i had them milled to be true again.

ok so what i had installed is as follows,

Comp Cam 236/236 .602/.602 114+2
ls2 timing chain
ls7 lifters
ls6 oil pump
comp dual springs
titanium retainers
SVO 30# injectors

and a base tune by Chummmma to get me around tull Tues when i get dyno tuned.

i had my friend joe prince install everything, and went together very smooth, no snags along the way other then this dam weather.
