Perfect timing, I need to do this job soon, and I wasn’t sure if it could be done with the engine in the car. Thanks for the info!

Happy to help! Take your time and do 1 cylinder at a time, ensuring you’re at the base circle of the cam. We found that this car had a carb cam with lots of overlap, so it didn’t behave like a FI cam. Good luck!

Dude you did a great job getting your camera in some tight spaces! I wouldn’t attempt that job without dropping the exhaust though. Just makes it so much easier. I always use Quad ring seals from the Oring store for the pushrod tubes.They have ones made of Viton. If you’re not familiar with them they have 4 sealing surfaces instead of just 2. I also use Viton valve cover gaskets from Real Gaskets in Elizabethton Tn. They hold up much longer and seal better as well.

Yes! Those viton valve cover gaskets are the best. The go pro makes it easy to get under the car, but lighting is always the issue

Looks like the little cable for the thermostat came off the pulley.

Good eye! The owner elected not to hook it back up so the flaps are always in the “open” position.

Rookie question No need to adjust valves after this is done?

@barefootgaragejax9252 11 месяцев назад

I would plan on it! You’ll have the rocker off completely, and the tolerance on the valves isn’t much, so just removing and installing the pedestals could change it.
