so today we did the new roller timing chain, LS6 oil pump, and LS7 lifters.

Re: My 58 Brookwood
That intake sure is purdy! I just gifted myself the Terminator X Max harness for my LQ4. Pretty ingenious little device. Looking forward to hearing it start up. Let me know if you're in need of some headers. I have some on the side of my garage with no place for them to go so happy to gift them elsewhere. Might work well in a sedan if you add some turbos...

Re: My 58 Brookwood
just ordered headers, but I am always in need of LS headers, if the price is right!

we noticed that some of the lifters were much longer than others (DOD), so I ordered new LS7 lifters and trays. the white stuff is competition cams assembly lube.

Re: My 58 Brookwood
That level of engine work is beyond me. Very impressive though. How do you know if you missed a part?

Re: My 58 Brookwood
