![]() Man what a job, but I think it was worth it. I spent a lot of time:
- Checking for P/V clearance (only 0.080 on the intake side...not great) - Chasing the threads in the block with a 7/16" tap. - Wire brushing the head bolts - Bleeding - Cleaning the block surface - Setting up the adjustable valvetrain - Setting up the Isky adjustable guide plates - Bleeding some more - Orienting the distributor - Vacuuming, blowing off parts with air, degreasing with brake kleen As expected, the engine is a little louder at idle, and a lot louder at WOT. The check engine light stays on now...I checked all the connections to the sensors which is usually the cause. I guess I'll have to do a code scan. Also, the engine warms up much faster. I hope it doesn't cause issues in the summer. Overall, I'm satisfied. Guess it's time to change my sig!
