So...head gasket was leaking coolant (externally, not into the combustion chambers) and the timing cover was leaking oil?
How big are the cams you're gonna put in?
Only took me 2 years to jump off the cliff! Only slightly freaked out now that I'm in free fall and tearing this thing to pieces.
hock: I'm no stranger to big projects and this is easily the most intense project I've ever done by a mile. Yep, the shop said it was just leaking externally, the lower edge of the rear piston looks like it has some oil on it, but just oil thankfully.
No cams. But I am working on cobbling together a little something extra if the budget allows for it.
