Cam going in. Lubed up right!

Smooth up in ya'!

Timing set on. Used old crank gear to walk it on.

Billet gears look nice! Hope I never see them again...

Piston stop on #1 Cyl. Let's find Top-Dead-Center

Degree the Cam. PITA but educational!

Target Intake Centerline 108deg; 105.375 at dot-dot.; dialed it to 109deg, , that'll do!

New LS1 ported/bluprinted oil pump on.

With spacers and bolts from the Rollmaster Timing Kit.

Front Cover and new Underdrive pulley on.

Double timing chaing gear - spacers - oilpump - cover - pulley all fit on great, w/ proper clearance

New AC belt on (supplied with ASP UD pulley kit)

I did not take my AC pulley off as I had adequate clearance.

New lifters and new lifter retainers in.

Still can't believe plastic goes in here!

Head gaskets on.

No markings on these, just made sure the coolant channel was in the rear.

Heads back on.

Checking piston to valve clearance

Check!

Getting the intake manifold on. String trick?

To hold the back bolts half in while getting it set.

Intake Manifold back on.

Valve Covers back on.

Coil Packs back on.

Steering rack back on.

Much easier to get on than off.

Steering pump back on.

Again, easier to get back on than off.

Alternator back on

Water Pump back on.

This is a 2004 waterpump, could not use the 180 T-stat with this, aw dang!
