Default H/C Started this morning!

Well, I'm finally getting around to the Heads/Cam project I have been planning for six months. I started this morning (was supposed to start Fri. Night, but it took me a day and a half to clean the garage and organize tools before starting). I've gotten pretty far so far. I am just shy of getting the heads out (damn LT's are in the way and I'm working on getting them out), already have the radiator/etc so the cam won't be far behind!

I'll update tomorrow, I'm too tired to type much more. . . off to :sleep:
