Plugging along. Making good progress. I should be able to pick up my heads today. Turns out one of the guides was a bit egg shaped. Its also the same valve where the new LS6 spring broke. I also had the guides machined for the lower height seals. All is well....
HOWEVER!! You knew this was coming.
WTF moment. My F23 has the shifter rod clocked 45 degress. Somehow ol' smoke and mirrors clocked it. Luckily I noticed this as I was transferring everything over to my replacement F23 (damaged due to improper FW thickness). So either I need to find the correct shifter brackets for an f23 swap or figure out how to rotate this and use what I have. Personally, I would rather go the correct route.
Have a look:

In the car and the 1st job was to bleed the clutch. No leaky HTOB. Time to get busy.
Oh yeah.. notice the orientation of the bolt for the dog bone... LOL[This message has been edited by BV MotorSports (edited 10-01-2014).]

That is good news! Did you spin the crankshaft by hand to make sure the pressure place clears the transmission?

Damn sure did. I really didn't want to go down this road again. I really appreciate your help with the measurement process. Going together really well. Longest part is finding all the bolts and nuts. Its been apart for a while now. :/[This message has been edited by BV MotorSports (edited 10-01-2014).]
