Nice man, transmaro on here runs a similar cam that made some good power in his setup. Can't wait to see the car finished.

Imo those ground effects and wing set this car apart from the other Camaros on the road. No one said to GM when the iroc z came out...GM loose those ground effects. And the spoiler gives the car a more Retro look from when the camaros had the higher spoiler in the second Gen years.

out with old in with the new

the old valve covers will not be staying on this motor, they are only on to protect the new rockers and springs while other parts are going on.

so I decided to get back to work on this motor build, did not get as much done as I wanted but hey my damn headers are still not back from the polisher, so I'm in no big rush. I did manage to get the fuel rails, injectors, starter, coil, and throttle body done. I really liking the way the back of the motor is looking, I know egr and air valves are not seen but hey it looks so much cleaner going in. Oh yeah the polishing company so conveniently told me that I will have my headers by the April 5th. whats another 2 weeks, when the car has not really moved in 7 months.

Throw a few washers between the ignition coil and the head. They tend to heat soak and will give you issues. If you didn't already, put some fresh thermal paste between the ICM and the bracket to further help eliminate heat related issues.
