Yes sir! Mostly ready right now. I have a few issue remaining that are intermittent (lifter tick and warm restart). Both come and go. I've ordered adjustable rockers to see if I'm having a net lash issue like many have reported and I will have those tomorrow. Easy to install. If that goes well, the truck will be going. If not, it may have to wait for next year. The warm start issue isn't bad enough to keep me from going, just embarrassing when it pops and bangs really loud, then starts fine as if nothing had happened.
