Sounds like you have it under control,Good luck and sounds like you're already having fun!!
LOTS of fun this has been such a good time and I've already learned so much that even little bumps in the road like the heads getting expensive don't really seem all that bad. I look at it this way, before I busted out the wrenches and went for it, I had started another thread about the engine build, and the labor for JUST the cam and head install with a tune was 2800 bucks. And that didn't include head work, gaskets, springs, nothing. And when it's done I'll be drivin a truck that I built instead of just farming out labor and then driving something I know nothing about.
