No more pics really today, but I got the cam in, timing equipment, oil pump, and windage tray.. what I still lack is the pickuptube bolt lol. I dont have one, so dealership will be in my agenda tommorow. Should have it wrapped up tommorow.

Well I have almost everything reconnected with the new motor now, just need a few more sensors plugged in and the intake manifold and it will be ready to start, once I get my PCM in the mail that is.

The tune still isnt done, had trouble getting in touch with tuner. The brakes arent too bad, but I havent ordered that hydroboost component yet, still looking for one. I am waiting on a new tranny before I put her on the dyno lol. I have given her plenty of miles and shes broken in now, and in a few hundred more miles i'll be switching to synthetic again, hurrah.
