Welp, got it all in triple checked everything, primed the fuel lines hit the key and it started up like it was never even talken out, timing was dead nuts after 4 times you get your marks right on:D I don't think there is a sweeter sound then that first start up after it's had some surgery.

I have to be because I can't sleep right and screw up at work. When ever I am doing something big to a car I care about it is running through my head 24-7 I think I got it bad:lol:

I used to be that way. Id be freaked out all day at work if I couldnt get the car back together in one night. Now, I couldnt care less if it ever runs again.

Yea, I'm always wound up but when I actually start working on it time does not matter I'll redo something 10 times if I don't like it but I just don't quit till it's done. I'm getting better though, no more 1:00-2:00 nights and now I always quit before 9:00 on work days.

Man can't wait to see that car at the strip!!

The clutch is very light, much lighter than the last Time. Trying to break it in. drove to work today, hope it wasn't a mistake. ;) Just can't wait to get some miles on it.
On another note, the pinon angle was within a couple percent so no changes made.
