Well bad news for me, the upper oil gallery plate gasket was ripped, but the timing plate where the gallery plate mounts has 3 cracks!!!!.
this easy job just turned into a nightmare. I have to remove all the timing, cam spokets, everything! (I hate timing these cars!!!) ill have to send the back timing cover to a welding shop, have them re weld it and put it back together. Im trying to find a used one but not having any luck.
Anyways, Willis, Good luck today!
I think everythings going to work out for you man!
im excited for results!
