Top removal thread
One box will be cheaper than one from here and one from Wildman, thats what I would do.
Hey You has posted a nice list for upgrades.
Valve covers can be seen in the lower left of the pix

A pix of just a few of my spares that I am selling or giving away.

Depending on your cam choice, Roller rockers sure wouldn't hurt you. Make sure the folks you talk to about the cam know what ratio rockers you are going with though. Just switching to 1.7 ratio Harland Sharp rollers is a nice performance boost, but, if you change the cam, sticking with the stock 1.6 ratio would be best.
Roller rockers reduce friction, so, you have a bit more power, and things don't wear out as quickly. Win on both counts.
if you elect to change the cam, make sure your heads will support the lift the cam provides, with your rockers of choice. Stock heads can only do about .480 lift. You can order your heads with different valve springs, that will tolerate more, for probably just a few bucks more from Clearwater/Odessa.

Stallion,
I will get a box together with the valve covers & fuel rail. Let me know if there is anything else you need. I can send my rocker arms if you need them too. Or if you want them for just in case that is fine too.
HeyYou,
Yep I guess I will be the guinea pig for everyone.

Thanks Wild.....Clearwater is supposed to send an extra set of rockers/pushrods if they have them...mine looked good by eye. I think the fuel rail and VC's get me close...Just need the alum plenum. I can find the sensors....

All good, I said screw it and ordered the black wrinkles(mopar). Used fuel rail coming also(loaded), mine was rusted to hell, and was no good. I've got everything here or coming by the 9th, except haven't decided on new injectors or just clean & rebuild the old ones(16 to choose from). Gotta get a muffler also. I went with the flowmaster CAT direct fit...to make it easy and road ready. Its got a cherry bomb on it now with a 45 downturn. Not sure if I can reuse it though. Quick cheap muffler for it? CAT is 2.5" out.
Should be back on the road in 2 weeks or less. My engine guy is a bit behind.....but he's back on track now. EXH manifolds, timing cover, INT manifold all blasted and painted/clearcoat. Block will be at machine shop tomorrow. Hes gonna hit the frame in the engine compartment also(best he can).
Should I look into the INT manifold mod? He's gonna hog out the exhaust mans at the shop. I also have the 50mm TB coming. Links to manifold mod?
Thanks again......
