Well after doing all my other projects but the one that really counts   ;D I got my Charger running.   In 03 my passenger cylinder head developed a coolant leak around the valve cover so   I decided it was time to redo the heads.   A friend had a fresh pair of heads back from a machine shop (installed new guides and light resurface work and valve seat work)   Well this year I finally got them out of storage and put in New SS Valves, springs, new rockers and a new cam and timing chain.   I wanted to have all this done by Saturday for the big Mopar show in Vernon, CT (August 28 be there or be square)  

Well I did it and you can hear part of the break in of the cam.   Click http://www.mymopar.net/temp/chargerstart.htm there to choose which one you want to hear.   It is sorta open headers as I didn't hook the collectors up to the pipes, but they were hanging right in front of one another.

I won't be able to bring the car tomorrow because I didn't follow up on the insurance so I will just have to tune it over the week-end and drive it Monday :icon_smile_big:

(I know my garage looks like a mess, but I was working on my Charger, pulling an axle and locker out of a Jeep rear end and redoing my bathroom all at the same time)

I won't be wronged, I wont be Insulted and I wont be laid a hand on. I don't do these things to others, and I require the same from them.
