So I just spent 12 hours straight (minus a little bit for showing the '88 to a potential buyer).
Here's progress pictures:

It started! Idle about 1500. I'm guessing cause of the timing. And its blowing some white smoke out that back I think. Its about 20 degrees here so its hard to tell. Gotta fix a few little issues but it started! And sounded fine!

How did you get the head on with the block in the car and the head studs installed? I was under the impression that the angle the engine sits at would mean the head wouldn't clear the firewall...

huh? maybe you have to move the harness out of the way a lil bit but it will slide right in place on the studs

Wrong. There is no way in heck the head will go on with those studs installed...haha. I snapped that pic before i took them all back out. haha.
Haha, I read about everyone trying to put heads one with studs in. I put mine in after I had the head on when I did my BHG.
So someone school me about the afterfixingBHG process. Is it ok for it to blow white smoke out still? I'm guessing it will go away? (It still could be the car being not warmed up plus 20 degree weather but I'm just paranoid) Do I need to find a timing gun and do that jammy?
Only problems I have now are that the timing belt is a little loose causing it to come up and hit the timing cover when I give it some gas. Its not loose enough to skip any teeth though.
And my idle is at 1500 rpms.
Thoughts on these problems?

?? Why would you waste the time of screwing the studs in when you know it wont go on? Just wondering.:sarcasm:
Nah I think maybe I just need to tighten the pulley or something. I haven't looked into it yet.

only tighten it to 36 ft lbs it might be 39 i cant remember, check the tourque specs very important not to over tighten because it will distort the #1 cyl wall.
