Yes, yes I will.

hendrixx, I agree man. It blows my mind that could slip through quality control at the factory. I would have never known what to look for if Travis didn't have the dealership run a diagnostic on it last year. I pulled the timing chain cover, lined up all the chains and there it was. Passenger side sproket, turned inward one tooth and never threw a code.

Travis's new HO engine will probably go in next weekend. I can't do it this weekend as I still have to get Travis's old 224s installed in my truck and get Sean's in the mail along with the rest of his goodies

I would have been further along but our clothes washer burned out the motor today and I had to buy a new one and install it in the basement. Doesn't appliances understand when truck modding is going down there is no breaking

That makes two of us brother. This is the last ditch effort to save my 4.10s. If this doesn't work the 3.55s are going in with the new LSD. I can't wait for you to get the ones I have now and install them. They RPM so fast, lol. I think you will love them. My goal is to have them out by Saturday, Monday at the latest. The washer did slow me down a little.

If you want them, probably around $350 shipped. That included both heads with valves, springs, lashes and rockers.
