OK I haven't updated for a while so here's where I'm at.

I think the reason it won't start is because my timing has jumped a tooth or two. So Night drift89 and I are pulling the engine out tomorrow for timing work, a cleaning, and hopefully headers installation. I'm going to see if I can just get the stock VH headers to work somehow. I've heard if you disconnect the steering joint in the bay, drop the engine in, and reconnect it, they'll fit. We'll see soon I guess.

I also don't have power steering, so I ordered the VH-S13 power steering kit from Mazworx tonight.

Here are some pictures of what I've been doing:

Engine was dirty....

Reeeallllyy dirty:

So I started cleaning up a bit...I'll get more done when it's out of the car:

I also made a bumper support in my welding class for fun:
