BTW for those wondering why in all teh pics the motor looks wet....I'm not hosing it off with water. I am Misting the whole engine bay with WD40 to prevent surface rust thuse less rust to clean off when i am ready to put on the new parts. I still have to clean off the gasket surfaces from the old gaskets.

what do most people use to seal up the unused holes? mig welder? Than afterwards bondo and block sand the area's?

Lubed up the new E303 ford racing cam with Comp cam & lifter Lube and installed it in the boss block. Than atacthed the timing chain. I need to figure out where I put my mustang manual, I don't remember where the timing marks on the timing wheels need to be exactly.

went to a local junk yard in search of a timing cover for a sn95 model with failuer, will probably end up getting 1 from ebay but still ahve a few junk yards to hit before I do. put in the oil sensor and added some tubing to install a mechanicl oil pressure guage along with the stock one. pictures will be below. test fit the GT40x heads with the rest of the stuff going on the top end of the motor.

I am a little concerned about the throttlebody and the Egr they are sitting close to the valve cover, I may look into getting a throttle body spacer to try to remidy the issue.
