All right.. I started working on my H/C/I swap with my friend. Took off the heads and intake today to see what the small block looked like. Wasnt sure what I'd find but it looks pretty good to me, but I don't know much

Looks like decent progress. I'm glad the drama in the other thread didn't make you leave Stanget. Some people are just jerks. I'll be following the progress. What are you going to use for tuning?

I really don't know what all that junk was about, but I pretty much just ignored most of it.

Also, I'm not sure about the tune yet. My mechanic friend who was with me was in awe looking at the inside of the stock heads and intake condition. kept referring to the engine as a "virgin" and a "steal", which I'd have to agree with, considering i paid 3,900 for the vehicle. I was actually really surprised how clean all the rockers, springs and everything were underneath it all. I was curious what it all looked like underneath everything, but my buddy said it looks like someone has been in there before, they put in aftermarket gasket sets, and obviously shorty BBK headers were put on at the same time a long ass time ago. ready for my long tubes :)
