Yea it's getting changed, probably got all kinds of crap in it, coolant seems to go everywhere when you pull a head off.Just make sure you get to that oil change before you fire it up as I'm sure it has a good bit of coolant in it.
I wish I had more time lately for more progress but I don't , I coach Rec football and it started last week which is Mon - Fri from 6:30 to 9:00 pm for the month of August and gets even worse in September. I did get the lower intake on and the injectors and stuff but , I trimmed the intake gasket cause it was sitting over the water jacket, is this right ? Who knows ? I couldn't find a definitive answer so off it came, I must of torqued the intake bolts 5 times already, for some reason everytime I put the torque wrench on them they move a little till 22 pounds. Weird ?? But I've decided I'm friggin done tightening them, so if it blows the gasket or some damn thing lesson learned. At the point where I'm gonna prime the oil pump and start slapping this thing together and see what happens.
I think I'd be better off selling it if I gotta change the gaskets, I used quite a bit of that right stuff gasket maker on the ends.... I don't think it's ever coming off hahaI think your gaskets are fine, and they are easy to change if not.
Once I figured out where the damn oil fill went I slapped the covers on.
No I didnt, I hoping since it's not a breather and just a filler neck and cap that it won't puke oil all over the place.... but it might be something in my future if it becomes a problem.cool- did you fab up any baffles?
I have seen that. I wouldn't do that. Seems like a bad idea to me. Potentially having steel debris running through the motor...no Bueno. I know it's unlikely to happen but...I've heard of some people stuffing steel wool in the neck. Can anyone else comment on that?
