I now have a manifold gasket in three pieces (still useable) and 44 thousand pieces of cork for the side plate. Luckily I have a bit of aviation fibre gasket. > Made it a lot easier to get to the valve chest as well! :) I know. I don't think I mentioned that the engine is on two rusted pieces of chassis, on the ground, tilted sideways. I will have to stand on my head and use a mirror. I'm kicking myself for not building a shed as well as a single car garage. I started out thinking that this engine was a lost cause and I started stripping it down and getting it turning over to see what made it tick in preparation for restoring the other three engines that are in better condition. I think this one may surprise if things keep going the way they are. -- Take Care. ~~ Feral Al ( @..@) (\- :-P -/) ((.>__oo__<.)) ^^^ % ^^^
