Rod and main bearings showed up also, head locator dowels. I think I'm just waiting on a transmission cooler, and the machine shop to polish the crank and press the pistons on the rods

Heads, rods, pistons, crank back from the machine shop. <br/><br/>Transmission cooler showed up no pictures of that. So I have everything i need to put it together, just need to verify torque specs, go buy some plastigage and we will get this party started
