Nice ! If you are happy then we are all happy for you .

I can tell you didn't end up adjusting the lifters correctly. If they where, you would have made another 90+hp and 150ft/lb of torque.

Too bad.

I'll try to get some videos loaded up. Going to be wrenching on it this weekend to get it dropped in. And yes - I think my Bravo is cowering in the corner of the garage.
