Why don't you use the $400 on repairing the transmission, and leave the cam alone, it ain't broke.

do the block in black and the covers grey to match your truck

The valvecovers are getting crinkle coated black, I'd kinda like to do the rest of the covers the same and do the block something different... Maybe gloss black, cold side piping is getting painted flat black... And the truck may not be grey a whole lot longer. the turbo is polished/ceramic and I'd like to shine the heads up a bit too.

Really considering it... Either that, or just getting rid of the 2-tone and going with solid storm grey and getting rid of a couple dents. There's local shows all the time, I'd like to be able to have the "complete package" nice paint, wheels, interior, and something impressive looking under the hood too... I would love to show this thing a little and feel like I've got a shot haha

Timeslips are first priority though as always
