    Okay todays progress.

    Well the day started good everything was going fine with the help of me calling Tyler(txarkikekt) several times aggervating him with little ?'s but he def knows what he's doing and answered every ? with ease. (Thanx a million!!!) well anyways me and a buddy were putting the new valve springs on the driver side while dad was putting the rocker arm on the passenger side cuz we had already finished it, and I DROPPED ONE OF THE LITTLE VALVE STEM RETAINERS AND LOST IT!!!! I am SOOOO mad! I have to wait til monday to get a new one which is ok i guess cuz I wont get my retune til wednesday. Overall it was not well is not hard at all just time consuming.


    Also I got a set of factory 5 spoke 20's yesterday with brandnew tires for $350 I almost flipped out over the price I had to buy them!!



    BIG thanx to 408.Luke for a great deal on the cam package and also to tyler for answering all my ?'s

    Those little thingies are really easy to drop. I use a magnet and hardly handle them with my fumble fingers. Almost everyone that has tried a cam swap has dropped one.....almost.
