So I ended up measuring my endplay tonight. Came out to a perfect .002
I also put on my front cover & accessories, oil pan and started to fit my EGT probes. I had my machine shop at work drill and tap my HKS cast mani so all I need to do now is route the wiring and figure out a place for my gauges.
Engine install starts on Monday and should be on the road tues(most likely sooner.....wife HATES me right now since I sneek into the garage whenever she turns her back
)
I will post pics soon.
