Giving the new camshafts, an oil bath the day before the start-up, engine was out of the car for about 3 months, so this is just a little insurance until oil pressure came up.

always label the fuel lines and the orientation of where they go, getting the fuel lines wrong will cause a no start condition.

After polishing the intake manifold I painted it, it's paited with flat black engine enamel, with the fresh polished surfaced the paint adhered to the manifold exceptionally well.

With so much going on you sometimes get confused or caught up doing something so, just to keep the progress moving forward the night before I wrote a list of everyting that had to be done that day, this technique worked well.

the stock exhaust manifold, ground out the factory welds where it connects to the head, and at the collector area. the welds were sticking pretty far into the runners.

Again the stock exhaust manifold, this has about 12 coats of flameproof VHT paint. it's good for 2,000 degrees'
