I talked to SDPC and I was right they don't actually have it in stock and it's on back order. But they where real nice and gave a number of a dealership to call because on there computer it showed they had 2.
I'm going to call vengeance Racing again and make sure they have two still. If they don't I'll call the dealership because I'm sure it will be more expensive there.

Thanks for that I went ahead and bought the one on EBAY. I don't want to chance how long this back order is going to take to go away.

Well I had to do some rigging to get get the crank pulley off. The neighbors puller was to big and the one from advance was to small. The longer dowel that goes into the crank was to short so I ended up using a extension stuck into the crank shaft.
I ended up loosing the power steering pump just enough to get the time cover out of the way. The bolts are hard to get to so I didn’t want to take them all the way out.
TSP package should be here tomorrow but I’m going to the lake for Memorial Day weekend. So I won’t take the old cam out and put the new one in until Monday or Tuesday. I still don’t have the heads back so I can’t put them on anyway and the head gasket’s won’t be here until next Wednesday.
