Looking good!
Did you get new head bolts or is it OK to reuse the same ones?

my back hurts just looking at those pics. 8 hours spent bent over the engine bay was not fun. Good thing you don't have to take heads off that often.

It did take forever to do since I was a lazy person chatting with darin and stalking EM, but I could prolly do it again <4 while being careful.
Ufotofu: I reused my bolts. Manual said it was okay so there we go,
. Good to see you around.
