OK, so I just read through Deansbimmer on his 4.4 resto build and I think I did the timing wrong. I know he mentioned turning the VANOS counterclockwise until it stopped and set the timing wheel. I didn't do that. Right now it still runs great, with the exception the timing is off. I'll probably hold off re-doing the timing for another month so I can get the house closed and moved, and then I'll have plenty of space and light to get it done.

Essentially I screwed up and need to read the book next time instead of just random web pages and looking at what pieces fit together right. Oops.

Also, I need to figure out how to get the hood into its fully open mode, that was pretty awesome!
