good point, thank you. valve covers look great right now.You might make a point to change it quite often for the next few thousand miles as the oil washes the crap / gunk out of the used engine you as-yet know little about.
Consider getting valve cover gaskets as well, if yours are leaking. Access to the covers is a bit easier once the other stuff's been peeled-back.
im trying to find out what's the best gasket set to use, any ideas? or what is vest sealant to use? i have the fel pro bolts in my cart now, should i get anything else?
i do hear a high pitched whine when the engine is running. i thought this was the fuel pump, is there a chance it's something else that may be involved in this?
