I posted some pictures for everyone. Also started removing half the peel and stick tiles from the basement, and grinding the mastic off. what a pain that is.

JRMichler- i plan on covering the foam board. as for the basement it will be like S-F basement walls. block walls, epoxy coating, foam board, gap, 2x4 studded walls, with unfaced insulation, drywall.
