question for the more intelligent

thanks ya'll. My plan is to do the swap this weekend. I work on the popping afterwards if it is still there. If it is still there then that gives me a reason to purchase a set of eldelbroch heads, cam, and lifters, etc because I'll blame it on a burnt valve. Again thanks for the help and I suppose I'll pull the dist. YOu know what is funny? I started pulling wrenches when I was about 14,but spend 96 % of the time as a diesel mechanic for cummins engine. I have been out of the wrench pulling job for about 8 years and man oh man how much I have lost.
