Default Got the car back from VA Speed today... new catch can, adjusted valvetrian + gears

Picked the car up... had them install isky adjustable guide plates to correct the valve-train geometry issues we ran into w/ the AFR heads, plumb the new valve covers for an oil fill and catch can lines, and install 3.89 gears.

Gears feel good.. haven't dogged it as I'm still heat cycling it but it's much quieter and feels good. Thanks to the guys at Va Speed

Because it's literally 5 minutes from my house and the stuff done wasn't road racing specific.

The one gray spark plug wire and rust on the metal portion of the upper radiator hose is driving me nuts.

What gears were in it? I take it you decided on 3.89's and not 4.10's to keep some sort of top speed.
