It's awesome without the drivetrain vibrating from the bushings it's a lot easier to spin the tires lol. It's a good thing....but it's a bad thing lol.

klutch you might wanna grab a set of winter rims. I know how winter in PA is. Without a doubt your going to see snow. I used to live just outside of Milford in Dingmans Ferry.

Looks like I'm doing a valve job on a L61

.Got everything timed(so we thought) and ended up being 2 teeth retarded on the intake cam.Let's just say every intake valve is stuck open on the turbo beast

.We already got a donor head to steal the intake valves from and we'll keep the ZZP valve springs in place and hopefully get er running back to 22psi and see what E85 really does.We start disassembly Thursday.
