I'm planning on surrounding it in a metal case, that I can drive anywhere I want to show it off! :)

But like John says...you should keep it in a safe place...away from heat and moving parts and oil (oil? or maybe that's just me :P)

The beginning of the end!!!!

Just picked the head up from the machine shop today!

They did 3 angle valve job, valve stem seals, springs\reatainers,resurfaced head, vacuum test and pressure test.

I am putting the lifters,cams,gears,seals,etc in.

They are iPhone pics....

Valve cover just sitting there right after I put the head on.
