not much movement during the week. I spend most nights at the GF's house....
I was home to run some errands, pay some bills etc. Got one of the heads assembled. These springs have a lot of pressure. They literally turned my (autozone style) claw compressor thing into a pretzel had to order the tool seen in the picture

Finally got the right size pushrods and got around to polishing the rest of the ends of the heads, the front cover painted, and torqued.
Harmonic balancer installed and torqued fyi (240 ftlbs, then 37 ft lbs, then 140 degrees) that was fun

Well left work early to get some work done on the boat, and of course never works out like you think it will
I came home, soda blasted the intake manifold, And I have to say. The 15 pound soda blaster from Hartbor freight kicks some ass. But it does make a mess, but who cares it's baking soda!
Here's what the intake looked like after about 5 minutes of blasting (aircraft stripper failed)

And I said it makes a mess...

But all in all it worked pretty damn nicely.

That's pretty cool. I'm thinking a plastic tent like enclosure would save a ton of work, then again maybe not.
So glad we have a blast cleaner here at work
