Why did you remove the valve cover and disconnect the fuel line to swap out timing chain tensioner?

Because i didn't want to risk skipping timing like a few people have swapping their tensioners so i pulled the valve cover and zip tied the chain to the gears.
Probably a bit over kill but hearing that people have bent valves swapping theirs ill play it safe.

Muffler deleted at local shop.

3" ZZP Catless D/P just sitting here waiting to be installed, i'm a wrench and socket shy of doing it...and time...I have no time to do anything, except work, raise 2 kids, and sleep the few hours a day I can. Totally worth it though.
