Well, my engine is supposed to be done today at the machine shop.
I got a call an hour ago, "call me"...(Machine shop)
Brand new, still in the box Trick Flow heads, purchased while deployed in 2005. One of the exhaust valves was bent, from the factory. So today, I can assemble the bottom end, but finish the job. I am supposed to start loading the truck to move out o this state on Wed.
There is no way to get the car 'tow ready' between now and then....I'm not even going to order the new valve, until I know the rest of the heads are solid.
Joy.
