What did you do to your non-G body project today? [2022]

[ck80]

10:00 just got home from the shop agine the heat is catching up with me but I made progress. The valves are adjusted and the lower and upper valve covers are on and torqued to spec. I changed the O-rings and brass seals on the injectors. I also mocked up the fuel rails and feed lines to the injectors the injectors are in but not torqued. I can't help thinking I'm forgetting to put something on before something else so nothing is tight yet. I'll go over it again tomorrow with a clear head. For now I made progress.View attachment 204234View attachment 204235
I took a lot of pictures on the way apart but it's been apart so long I really wish I took more.

Looking good, still can't get over how many parts are on there

Man, we're all pullin' for you. Hopefully you get the distributor stabbed right the first time and not 180* out 😏.

Ordered some 255/70R17 snow tires for Natasha's Colorado. 1 inch taller than stock. Yeah, I know... it's August. But, supply chain issues are driving this. Also got a set of spark-a-lators.

And bit the bullet on a super secret part for the HellKitty. Little known mod... but, I'll share when it arrives. 😉

does it involve 1.2 Gigawatts, a flux capacitor, or a Mr.Fusion?

Yeah when I got done last night I stood back, looked at it and didn't feel it looked any different.

If only it had one. If it did I'd at least be familiar with what I'm doing.

As long as he lines it up with the carb it'll be fine

Glad to see it going back together.

Weather today was an unseasonably cool 91* so I decided it was the perfect day to torch the brush pile.

It's getting that time of year and I don't want the baby copperheads making it home, another reason to be clearing more land to begin with - less brush near the house.
