So, after about a month during which I couldn't work on my Z for various schedule and parts reasons, I finally got to call the machinist and the powder coat guys. Looks like I can pick up the head and all the little brackets and pieces for the engine this Friday!
Yes, Darrell, that means I might be ready to buy a spindle pin puller from you to get the last major system of the car finished!
Now, if I can just find a good way to work on a black car in sunny 100 degree weather, I'll be set...
