In Canada...there are many hammers. lol
Oh yeah..it came out. That'* not a problem when the torch and other good tools are sitting there for a whim.
I'm hoping on your build up..that we won't need any. Did you already remove that bolt?

Upper intake and lower intake are off.
Rockers and push rods are out
All parts and accessories are here and ready to go in.

Cleaned engine bay today (thanx to simple green, great stuff)
waterpump pulley is off
Gasket areas are cleaned.
Begun to clean up motor, probably clean it with simple green and a hose once it is back in
New spark plugs and wires on the motor.
Hmm thats about it today.
But most progress was the engine bay, it isnt perfect but looks a whole lot better compared to how bad it was.

Well the build begins tomorrow. I am going to swing to the garage a little early and give the engine bay another cleaning. Then i am going to clean the gasket surfaces again. Organize everything and wait for Bills' arrival (probably like 7ish or around then). Then we are going to get started. Hopefully tomorrow we can put a nice dent in it. I do not have internet access at my garage so.... Everyone will just have to just wait

Should be a lot of fun! You guys will work fast together... Boosty has that effect on people. I doubt there'* anything I can help with, but give me or Doug a call if you guys have any questions. Bill has our numbers.
