So close to getting her going again!! Valve lash is set, cover will go on, hopefully for good tomorrow, restring the harness, plug everything back in along with a few misc hoses, spark plugs, wires, swap out the impeller pump, hook the exhaust manifold and risers back up, charge the battery back up, hook up the muffs and turn her over!
Note to anyone who does this, don't spray paint the head in your finished basement with only a drop cloth down unless you like a Volvo red tinge to the floors, walls, cabinets.......my poor wife.....
Oh, and I found the thermostat.......didn't realize it was up in the housing and not in the intake manifold....rookie mistake there or lack of sleep...
