Last few parts ordered
12/18/2018
Last few parts are ordered. I found out I need a new dipstick because the welds tore at the bracket and we're zip tied to the bracket. I would have just done an o-ring in the block hole with some rtv if that wasn't the case and welded the bracket.
Also coming are a new pilot bearing (since the old one had some rust, pcv screen and grommet cause the pcv screen was crazy dirty and loose, floor pan drain plugs which were rusted through, idler pulley cause mine was squeaky. I may delete the pcv and go to 2x breather elements to lower the oil buildup and vacuum leaks in the intake. Depends how much she smokes when I do the smoke test.
Next is clean and paint the k-member/engine bay. Tough to do when it's in the 30s and I have no room for a heater.
