Plan was the get the head installed, but I found I was missing a head dowel. So I just installed all but one of the studs and set the head down temporarily. I ordered a new dowel along with a ton of other hardware and new timing belt covers. Excited to see all those new parts. Anyway, on to the pictures
Fancy CA625 studs:
Most of my new sensors came in. Bosche Temp/Pressure sensors (with threading adapter), Bosche Motorsport Air temp sensor, Bosche Wideband Knock sensors, and R35 coil connectors. Just waiting on USPS to deliver the 4 bar map sensor
Knock sensors come with mounting stud and even a wiring boot:
I also made a very spontaneous purchase and something I definitely shouldn't have spent money on, but it happens.
