    Today I brought home some alignment pins for the deck since they were missing.. It helps I have to pull all the pins from the blocks at work, so in my pocket they went:cool:

    I also made a trip to the parts store! I bought a headgasket set, oil pan gasket and rear main seal set just so i didnt have to wait for them to order a full gasket set. Doesnt really matter since I have to buy a timing cover, timing set and oil and water pump still, ill get those gaskets with them anyways. I also bought new brake calipers and pads..

    This weekend hopefully I can put on my head. I still have to assemble my aluminum rocker arm assembly since the tower pieces that came with the aluminum ones were rusty! thankfully I have 2 more sets of steel ones! One to take apart to use and another to use as reference.:cool:

    I decided to start assembling stuff last night.. Put my aluminum rockers on a set of steel ones I had, now I need to get new adjusting screws since ones missing and a couple are pretty worn down.

    I will probably make a run to the junkyard for a front cover since I dont have one, and will probably order the rest of the stuff next weekend. :cool:
