Because I dropped a bolt into the distributor hole I had to take the intake manifold off to attempt a rescue. Fortunately I was successful. The bolt and washer were caught by who knows what on the right side under the cam. I was able to just touch it with a magnet. Both the bolt and washer came out together.

Some pictures of Tom's Engine in the raw...
The next upgrade will show up on the doorstep by Friday (I hope). E-heads! Hooray! That is if I can get the overheating fixed. And just so any purists won't get their panties in a bunch, the original engine is on a stand and will remain stock (except to fix that nasty cam incident that ground three lobes flat). Pictures available to any that are interested.
