I put some boards around the edge of mine and beat them off with a hammer. I reinstalled them using the rotor as a hammer.

Your injectors are fine. The stock coils are fine on highly modified cars. Spray is a cheaper install and bigger bang than cams.

That is about what I paid for my forged 5.4 3v including cams and a Whipple using my block, heads, and crank.

Stupid me, that did not include labor. Assembled it with wife's uncle.
