[Tear Down Update 4]: Things start going back together.
Hi. :) I only worked from about 3-7 today and got a few things done.
1. Lingnfelter 74219 Camshaft Installed
2. Lifters Installed
3. Cloyes True Roller Timing Set Installed
4. Timing Cover refinished and installed w/new gasket & seal.
5. Oilpan Gasket Installed
6. Oilpan installed.
Tomorrow I'll try to install the balancer and maybe the water pump.

Sorry, I didn't take pics of the timing cover refinished. It looks really nice. :) I left the timing tab polished and the rest of the cover is gloss black.

Looks good - how hard was it to degree in that camshaft?
1. Install lower sproket on rectangular keyway.
2. Turn crankshaft until rectangular image is at 12 o'clock.
3. Install camshaft with dowel pin at 9 o'clock.
4. Install upper sprocket & chain with timing dot at 12 o'clock.
5. Make sure a straight line passes through both timing marks.
All done. :) It really was simple.
