So now the fun begins!

When you starting the install? Let me know if you run into any issues.

OK some things have come together and I will be starting Friday night! I have something else I have to do all of Saturday. Then I'll start back up Sunday and work until I finish. You can catch this exciting action LIVE on a streaming webcam here - http://www.ustream.tv/channel/edelbrock-e-force-install

It better work too. I need to take a road trip in it 9/12. Hopefully the wideband I'm putting in will give me a clue about it being safe to drive.

Scheduled 9/14 for dyno time. Woo-hoo!!!

I'm not driving my car tomorrow so that it will be cool to work on when I get started. Will either start after work. There's an off chance I may take 1/2 day off and start after lunch. I'll post here when I start.

Heck, I'm doing out right now to do some preliminary stuff (no webcam) like removing the bumper, etc.

What the heck...broadcasting now! But the lighting sucks and the camera needs to be a lot farther away. http://www.ustream.tv/channel/edelbrock-e-force-install

Done for tonight. So far so good. Got the CAI, fuel rails, injectors, and intake manifold off.

Only one oh **** moment so far and I will have to look farther into this tomorrow. After removing my intake manifold, there was some grit & debris of course around the edges of the heads where the intake manifold used to be. One such piece of grit was a small pebble! Made me wonder if small pebble's buddy may have fallen into the head.

I will look into the head tomorrow when I have better light. Can't have gravel down in there high-fiving my valves!!!

Heh, good idea on the streaming. I couldn't do that though, since mine would be rated NC-17. I can't seem to do anything mechanical without getting completely frustrated yelling the "f" and "c" word a lot.

Ahh, good. Yeah that would be ok then. You'd just be able to see me in the background standing there bitching then, lol.
