took the valve covers off, pulled the rockers and the push rods.



check out these little guys.. instead of pulling them we'll just swap out the head that has a little nicer set.



here is Kerby working away. I had to jingle my keys above the camera to get him to look at the camera. he gets really involved in the work that he is doing.



mmmm 6.2L note the stock timing tensioner. we have had a few cases of these failing and chewing up motors.



So we replace all of them. This nice little unit is cheap and much safer. We call it the Bow-tie. -wile we where at it we upgraded the gears to a C6R Set and upgraded the oil pump too!

going out of order here, but our MTI LSA cam went in.



we'll need a big bag to put everything that's not going back into the car.



Installed the MTI stage 3 heads. port-polished-springs-retainers...the works.



Oversized pulleys for more boost.
