        Well the intake is on, new opti is on (took the old one apart and found the rotor to be in pieces, lol no wonder it ran so bad before we took it apart). We moved the front suspension up to where the car is. We've been working on putting the gauges in the dash for the past few days. I took some pics with my phone but they arnt sending to my e-mail.

                As you can see it doesn't come in contact with the valve and would hit the spring



                Oh and what is under this bag?
                Did you put the valves & springs together? It really looks like you have the bottom plate and the top plate reversed. that is why the top of the valve sits down so low. Just noticed that from pics.

                    here is a pic of Brians head and valve. see how the top of the valve sticks up higher. I remember the bottom plate shaped more like your top plate. If you have not gotten new rockers yet might be worth checkin out. Dart could have had some rookie asm. it and its wrong. Wouldn't be the first time a mistake was made. Anyway just noticed that and thought it was worth mentioning to maybe help you.

                              I would send a pic to Dart and ask what's up!

                                So decided to take the trans to a shop to get it checked and make sure it looked good on the inside. Turns out it's pretty much junk. Shavings and what not all over the bottom of the pan. Planned on putting it in this weekend too
