    Huge thank you to Morgan for saving the day. Got his heads, and Monday they'll go into the machine shop. I've had a bunch of various LT1 parts in my bins for over a decade. A little surface corrosion, but I have some LT1 cams that should be good to go. Hoping to have the car ready by the end of October.

    I've always wondered if a machine shop can polish a cam the way they do a crank.
