I need the basement real estate back plus that's a lot of cash just sitting there lol.

I told you Jordan that schlumbergay wasn't great, thier drives suck and so does their customer service.

Mark, I'm just talking about manifold gaskets, insulators and stuff like that. Don't need everything that was in that box but will eventually I guess

actually not alot in the box. but jogged my memory a bit.

stock is
x6 gm#90470712
x1 timing tensioner
x1 stock exhaust manifold gasket
x1 3 inch header to cat back gasket ottp i believe
x4 oil squirters
x1 crankshaft/timing sprocket.
x2 TOB
1 package ups delivered looks like 2 solid o ring type gaskets. possible rear main?
2 boxes of crankshaft bearings


i did the following work

timing - used your timing kit, but i bought the timing cover gasket at the dealer
timing tensioner - used your tensioner, you had 2
head gasket pack - got it from ced/ottp
sc gasket - got through a deal
head studs - got through you
clutch - i got that from ced, fly wheel resurfaced i reused pins, i do have the tool.
valve cover gasket cant remember but possible through you maybe dealer or ced
i believe the rest was go fast parts.



well you might as well go lay some hurting down on some cars around here.

Ah right, valve cover gasket was from me. Kay, thanks. Will be getting an order from CED here in the next day or 2.

Since you are already in here Taylor, would you be able to get a tune for me this spring? I'm a little leery of impact trying to tune my car hahaha

You'll never max out 80's on pump gas. If IDC gets up there just use a BRFPS.

The 80's will run much better on pump gas than the 1000's would. More so at idle.
