Snap, I am glad I'm taking my time. I've noticed a couple of key issues especially the teeth of the crank sprocket being rounded off. If I was rushing I would probably have missed this and might have had it apart again in another 300 miles.

Where did you get the plasti gauge stuff from? I will need to do this when I start reassembling my spare block.

I know NAPA has them. Any parts house should have them.

I'm just terrified that I'm going to blow this up so I need to do it the right way.

I think I did it right. Tried to keep everything as clean as possible. Rubber gloves and brake clean were flying everywhere!

What is all the white stuff that you have on the main bearings and caps? Assembly lube of sorts?
Are you replacing the crank sprocket? You had mentioned that it was rounded.
Looking good!

Assembly Lube
My project of the weekend is to get the new sprocket on.

These two inverted torx bolts that secure the lower cover on were finger loose. No wonder I was leaking oil.

Jesus bolt out.
Stretched as I thought. If you didn't read it earlier the bolt was easily loosened by a big pair of channel grips.

Any advise to get the middle torx bolt on the timing case cover loose without removing the cams?
