Picked up another project

Started the injector lines on, they actually fit, nice surprise.
Second picture is the killer dowel pin, 12 valves are famous for that pin vibrating out and killing the engine.
The 24 valve obviously suffers from the same pin, but is not a big of a problem due to less vibration in the 24 valve, but why take a chance for a simple fix when I’m already in there.

Today I torqued the injector hold down bolts, then the rocker arm assemblies with my new HP push rods, the OE ones are .375 the new ones are .475, thicker and made from chromoly. Still have to set the valve lash, then the top is done.
