Got in my goodies yesterday! One of the heads has a bent rocker stud from shipping UPS. So it's gotta go back.

Summit stage I vortec intake, idle-6000 rpms, dual plane.

GM Vortec heads, #060.

Notice anything wrong!

Got a little bit of work done this weekend. For starters I rolled out "Blue", swept up the garage, and organized a bit. I got that out the way so I could make another mess.

Now that I've got my chassis about 85% done I'm concentrating on doing body work. My plan is to have both the frame and body finished at the same time so that way I can send off my car to get painted while I break down, paint and rebuild the chassis.

There's some dings here and there you couldn't really see but could feel. So I took care of those. I sprayed primer on those areas once I finished smoothing down the body filler.
