Update on "the project"....

Decided to check over some engine components and replace for peace of mind...lots of play in timing chain, so that's gone and since valve springs are original they are history too. Got some parts together from the shop today like: valve covers, BB deep groove pulleys, alternator, and lots of little stuff from the "parts pile". Next step will be new front springs, upper control arm bushings and shocks. Freshening up brakes front and back, calipers, hoses, etc. Want to be sure steering/brakes are good to go. Checked date codes on the 291 heads today..both the same K28 9. Sorry didn't get that new digital camera yet..maybe this week.
