Congrats on joining the TLC (Timed LT5 Camshafts) Club! Hopefully it is clear sailing from here to the finish line. Enjoy the ride.

Thanks Scott. I think all will go well from here and I imagine a few small snags like anything else, but I can't wait to fire it up and hear the Beast come alive.

Craig,
You can't fire her up till you get the IH's and Plenum. Did GVD say when he'll be done? He's had them for what seems a lifetime

Carter,

Yup, in a few days that is all I will be waiting on and you forgot the TB and air horn. In Sep it will be the 1st Anniversary. I am waiting on a target date I can expect to get the rest of the stuff back.

I sure hope you have all back and driving the beast way before Sep. That is rediculous......................

Carter, Paul and Tom,

Thanks for your concerns and comments. I am just told another two weeks and those pieces will ported and on their way back to me. It will cut very close and not sure I can make the Corvettes in Paradise Concours event Labor Day weeend.

Tom, I just tried to share some hightlights of where I am and what I found, but did not go into detail as it is a little difficult when learning and trying to take pictures along the way. I just wish more detail information was out there to do this a little easier and I'm probably not the best person to try to give the step by step detail with photos. I imagine Dynomite will do so when he does his.

If time and money permits, I would like to build another serious motor down the road and it would be much easier not that I know what to do and not to do.

Aloha,

Craig

The motor you are doing now is a real stump puller as is. This is serious enough for most of us

I'm not sure if he is still doing it or not as I tried to call and email some time ago with no reply to get more tools. A set with other items were on Ebay so they come up sometimes but not sure if anyone else is making them. Someone should if Bill K has stopped making them. I can't afford the real deal and all his tools worked fine for my rebuild.



I sent my tool set to another forum member, I will let then speak if they are going to reproduce them, they made me a tool and it was a nice as the Kent Moore
