Any last suggestions(on cam swap)....

[davjos81]

before i through my cam in this weekend. Im buying some oil and bags today to separate the bolts and stuff. Ive taken lots of notes of magnus's site and off here on the install. To those of you that have done this- would you suggest i use some high temp gasket sealer along w/ my gaskets for the valve covers, upper and lower intakes, and the front engine cover? Any suggestions would be appriciated. thanks guys

use some high temp gasket maker just to hold the valve cover gasket in place, while you install the valve cover. if you don't, the darned valve cover gasket keeps wanting to fall out of the valve cover, while you're trying to install it. just use enough to hold it in place.

and you'll need some gasket maker for where the block, oil pan & front cover meet. (two points) just put a little on those two points, where those three items meet, and you'll be good.

those are the only places i used gasket maker. make sure when you reinstall the rocker arms, that the holes for the rocker arm bolts are CLEAN before installing the bolts...like blow some compressed air in the holes ifyou can.
