Where are the cracks? Some counterbore cracks were/are acceptable. Cracks from water passages to the counterbore are easily repaired with a threaded insert. Pics?

And, you do know that that gasket is not the head gasket, correct? It almost looks like there is no cooling going on. Was there coolant in the head when you took it apart? Is there coolant in the air tank? Are you going you pull the exhaust valve and replace/re o-ring it?

Dry. Check flatness and use a torque wrench.

Combat mode? :ROFLMAO: Does the TM REALLY call it that?

Spin on filters are the, well, one of the best mods to do to the multi. Keep in mind, the Cat you are talking about goes from zero to 1800 in a heartbeat. If you start a multifuel powered 2.5 or 5 T and don't touch the go pedal to rev the crap out of it, the engine will be fine for longer than...

Are those HH parts? Never had the need to go into one.

Very cool! You are going to turn that into a great DD! Were you able to find the twins of the wheel cylinders?

Don't know your skill level. For me, not hard at all.

Can you go look at it? If so, look to see that the rear support is on the bottom of the compressor and all 3 sets of bolts are in it, 2 into the compressor through the flat plate, 2 through the flat plate into the spacer mounted to the block, and the two that secure the spacer to the block. If...

Exhaust port size was reduced to speed exhaust gas flow. They are interchangeable, can be mixed on any engine, SC or BC. Only thing difference is the hole in the intake. ReCon heads come with a plug kit and include the 1/16 inch PP to plug the holes on early heads for turbocharged engines...

Lift has no bearing on the plunger seating? Explain that. If there were no duration, or outer base circle, carbon would be pushed back into the injector cup, then you'd be changing injectors constantly.

HMMWV........ Contact Fastnova here on the site. He is here in So. Cal.

Heads will be fine if it is turbo charged, if not, you need to have the hole into the intake. 400 injectors will not work because the cam is different. More lift on the 400, .266 V.S. .176 IIRC. Even if I am wrong on the measurement, the BC is WAY different than the SC, you will have a smoke...

Give it a good once or twice over. It has been sitting a bit, no real road miles, only trips around the block and compound....but you already know that! If you need help, you know how to reach me. Keep us up to date on what you do. It will be good to see it come back to life as a regular driver...

Moved to correct forum

Sprat foot powder works great, it can be targeted and dries fast.

Then it isn't a spray leak. Powder works well. Coat the engine and run it. The leak will show it's face. You can, for a very short time, put your finger over the blow by tube to make pressure. The leak will show up. While you are there, look at the tube and make sure it is not...

No, don't wash it, look for the clean spot. If it is a sealing surface leaking and not spraying, it will cause a clean leak path, road dirt, debris will stick to the oil on the non leaking/residue area and the oil leak will cause a clean, no debris stuck to it, area. That will be the leak point...

Can't tell you how many times people "troubleshot" an oil leak and called it a rear main. That's why I was in the position I was in. I was a lead and liked to teach others. It is hard to TS something over the web or thru pics. But, sometimes I am correct. I do kinda miss that. but I do like...

Well, from the picture, it looks like there is oil farther forward on the engine, looks like the fuel pump side. The bottom of the flywheel housing is the lowest point...except for the bottom of the pan....and the oil, if leaking from elsewhere, will flow back there and look like a leak. Get a...
