Need help on LS1 on saturday!!!!

edit: i'll be doing the actualy heads and cam this saturday. if anyone has any experience on this and would like to help out, let me know please. i'm trying to finish this car up soon. if anyone has done this before, i'd very much appreciate it. i'm down to the valve covers already so if anyone knows their way around this motor, it shouldn't take too long. i'll be supplying beer and pizza


... i'll be working on my car until next tuesday. i need all the help i can get because i have only until next tuesday to finish it because i start class which will own me and overlap into fall semester. i'm gonna start working on it tomorrow morning and i'll be working on it everyday with the exception of friday evening and possibly sunday evening. i will be supplying pizza and beer to those who come. if you need directions or have questions, PM me or call me if you have my number. any help would be greatly appreciated because i have almost no mechanical skills as many of you know.

ps- if anyone has, here are some tools i may need:
pushrod length checker
pulley puller
and maybe a quarter inch torque wrench

what needs to be done on the car:
heads/cam and supporting mods
full exhaust
new suspension front

guys, any help would be greatly appreciated. i bit off more than i can chew this summer and i really miss my car very dearly.

edited the original post. the pain in the rear motor mounts will be done tonight (much thanks to goofy), the rear is just about ready to go in (much thanks to jon carty (b64c)). and all that remains is the heads/cam (for saturday), the front suspension, and the exhaust.
