That sucks about the intake gasket.

If you could source a sheet of the base material it would be easy to make one that fits.

3rd times the charm!


Finished installing the intake manifold, installed new carb gaskets and got that installed. Installed new front main seal and timing cover. Installed oil pan with new gaskets

Turned engine over by hand and feels solid Now need to order a water pump, clutch and a lot of vacuum hose
