Today I spent a little time cleaning up and preparing to install the intake manifold. I'd go ahead and install it but I decided to use a Fel-Pro 1250S gaseket which is metal lined instead. It will take a few days to get here but it is added insurance so that I don't have the same problem with the gasket as last time.
I painted the timing cover and water pump were the leaky thermostat housing discolored it over the past couple of years. This took some time as I had to remove quite a bit and then use some strips of tape to cover bolts and pieces of plastic to protect everything from overspray. The job took a bit but the engine looks good again.
