Today: Wash. As hardcore as possible, but still not a summer-quality wash.
Within a month: New exhaust tips. The cowbells are looking a little....bovine.
This summer (maybe): Finally get the tails cleared.
This summer (for sure): Replace front passenger window regulator that crapped out on me this winter.

Now that I've finished the rear cylinder head, the list is:
Port and polish the front cylinder head.
Reinstall springs/retainers/valve locks on both heads.
Replace timing gears, chain, tensioner.
New water pump.
Port/polish another LIM.
Port/polish/rebuild/paint another SC.
Finish putting the motor together, finish the FWI, replace both front hubs and control arm bushings.
De-bug what doesn't work. This doesn't include all the little misc things that need to be done in the meantime.

For my 98 SSE:
Finish Tune-up (Still need to replace Tranny Fluid and Plugs/wires)
Convert interior from Tan (Not a fan) to Charcoal
Adding Heated seats while in process of swapping interior
Glowing red PONTIAC on rear.
Sound system (Leaving Bose in, adding head unit with USB capability, connecting a USB hard drive with, to date, 11k+ MP3s on it)
Drivetrain Swap (L67 drivetrain if what I want [L47, or ideally, though I doubt it'* possible, the LS4] is not possible)
Up the HP.
