Thanks for the suggestions. I had already pulled out my large shop vac. I am almost ready to put the head on. I need to chase and clean the head bolt threads out. There was quite a bit of coolant and oil on a couple of the bolts when I took them out. I want to make sure that I get a good torque on them.

On a side note, when I took the P/S gear off the pump I bent the crap out of one of the teeth on the gear.....

.

Damn now I need to call Dan again.. I hope that I get get the gear separate. Hopefully I will get the head back on tommorrow and start putting every thing back on..
