mrbigtanker Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 You are going to change the crank seal or is that anew one you painter over.Looking good though and is that a 521 oil pan? If not it won't work. Quote Link to comment
konig209 Posted September 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 Tanker thanks for the pointers but it is a 521 pan and thats the old front seal. Every gasket is going to be new. Im debating if i want to remove flywheel to do rear main.... ? Quote Link to comment
konig209 Posted September 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Picked up the head a cleaned it up on the outside. Needa paint it and torque it all down. Then the real fun begins. Quote Link to comment

Janksun Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 Just do the rear main. It'd be a pain to put the engine in and a couple weeks later the seal blows out. Quote Link to comment
