I may have goofed. I thought there would be a top dead center mark on the crank pulley. I don't see one on there or in the manual. How are you guys verifying TDC with the head on?

Couldn't go much farther with the heads because my "head gasket kit" didn't come with cam seals. :Awe:

So I took the opportunity to start on the exhaust. Doing a 4 into 1 dumping on the left side.

Right side.

This nice new and clean stainless sure welds better than the header.

Playoffs started tonight so I'll finish it this weekend. :salute:
 
Exhaust is done. I would've liked to have a little more room to sweep the pipes together but I doubt I'll notice any performance loss.

Looking good :good: Any clearance problems with full downward rear suspension travel?
 
Patience Dan, patience.

The wheel is pretty much as far down as its going to go. I'll pop it up on the center stand soon and check it then. It wouldn't be a big deal to kick it out a bit if it does hit.
