Haha…. My virgin attempt at a HG replacement (as well as hoping to get rid of all the oil drips… I think every single gasket was leaking to some degree…)

Clocks tickin to get er done before SAS…. Dropped the head off at the shop on Friday..

I was leaning towards the Slee ( I have Slee rear swing out and short-bus bumpers) but I really didn’t want to weld on brackets, so went with the WKOR sliders and really happy with them. I have 4Plus front and rear bumpers on my 40. All 3 companies make quality products.

Well I got the beast pulled and no indications of a head gasket leak on any of the cylinders so very happy about that (the plan was for this to to be a preventive replacement as there was no history provided that it had ever been replaced by any of the PO’s) No vurgin aluminum here…. But some...

Quickly learning why people suggest that….

Decided to bite the bullet and go after the head gasket so hopefully that will give peace of mind for SAS. First time I’ve tackled a HG, so I’m sure it will be a slow process. Thought I made pretty good progress in 3hrs with the upper intake plenum unbolted and ready to come off after I get...

I just installed the same on mine (although I gave it a quick coat of Eastman black radiator paint prior to installation)... easy installation with a few rivnuts. I like how you added the protection where the hoses go thru the frame. I should probably do that as well for peace of mind.

and a nice view of the PHH in the 1st photo for those wanting to know the location.... (I'm currently in the process of tackling that project right now... unfortunately for me, my engine is not on an engine stand.)

Is there a reason to keep them? I still have mine boxed up, but keep contemplating to toss them to make room for other used parts...

Maybe I should buy a set for TAC that could be used by all (I just get 1st dibs since I've got a couple bushings that are pretty cracked)

trial and error would work equally as well for those that are mathematically challenged. IMO… probably the best $115 you can spend if you have put larger wheels/tires on your 80 (and apparently it also works on 70/75/100 series as well)

Finally installed the Lutz speed-o-meter calibration unit. Took about 15min do it including the test drive and 5 min trying to find my tube of RTV sealant. 17 “up” clicks and now she’s dead on accurate. 👍👍

yep… saw that when I went to the shipping section of the actual webpage…. Hoping he can bring me a set to SAS8. 😉

both of those services ship almost daily to my address (apologize for hijacking the thread.)
