    thank you sir
    its gonna be a sneaky DD i could have gone back stock but then id be unhappy when my truck is getting passed up like im sitting still.

    ive got a lot of things i needa pick up but i cant find the time to do it all in one day.

    what are yall using to clean the surface of the heads an block? i dont wanna use a plastic scrapper bc its not chunks of stuff its just got a discolor to it.

    ive got pics of the cam swap an knock sensors but no time to upload them just yet..maybe ill get a chance tomorrow to post em.

    I clean the top of the block with a box knife blade held in fingers only. Heads always go the the machine shop to have them milled to minimum cleanup. $55 is what it costs here to surface a set of heads. $25 to wash them. If the block just is discolored you can use red scotchbrite to clean it up. Aluminum heads, you could use one of those white bathroom scouring pads.
