I need to build mine..!! lol
(ooo..this summer...!)

I found out my heads are junk when I was changing my plugs the other day (they were junk anyways. NonPI).

Pulled plug #3 and it came out with a friend. An INSERT!
... So thats where all my pinging was coming from! Probably 4 or 5 threads are exposed to the Comb. Chamber
(every time it sounded like it was only one cylinder)

But yeah... everything looks BEAUTIFUL!!! again

Looks really good. Feels good to see some progress!! Are you going to pull the tubing back off and polish it and what about coating the hot side of the turbo?? I really like how Frank Pompillio's car is done like that. Regardless it'll look great!!

effing GORGEOUS work so far. Can you tell me what kind of fittings you needed to convert the PCV ports on the head to AN fittings? I assume it's heading to a catch can? I really want to do this on my 4 Valve. Is that -10AN or bigger hose?

Keep up the great work!
