u were braver than me.. i was thinking of putting a satin stripe on my car when i painted it, but didnt know how it would hold up to the elements. looks sweet though..

You can probably use that satin clear on the stripe so it holds up.

Love the stripe, similar to what I want to do, but
I'm bummed about having a raised edge. It's looking
like Jerry Titus's trans am car.

Cam and head swap is going well. Engine only has about 900 miles on it. Looks purty inside!

Here's a few better quality pics of the motor going back together. Excuse the engine bay, it looks horrible and I have not had a chance yet to clean it up after paint and body. ...I will be shooting the rest of the motor black to match the heads also, instead of the hideous "cast-iron grey" it was before.

E303 cam, new Ford Racing roller lifters installed, APR head bolts, and Comp Cams double-roller timing chain.

...Next comes the Scorpion 1.72 rockers, hardened one-piece TFS push-rods, screw in 7/16" studs, and guideplates. I will also be mocking up the polished Toker 289 intake manifold to get a "gasket height" so I can properly port-match the runners.

The Doctor at work. [Wink]

One cylinder at a time, checking guide-plates and valve geometry/roller centers, marking everything as I go and properly torquing every stud and lock. Valve setup is actually one of my fortes, definitely something I take seriously. These should never need re-adjusted once I'm done.
