Re: Operation Rescue, 2004 Mach 1

Yeah, I guess we'll find out just how good here before too long haha.

Here's how things sit as of this morning. Oil pan is on and torqued, and the valve covers are on and torqued. This engine is ready to drop into the car!




However, here's where I'm going to start needing your guy's help. This was in pieces when I got it, so I don't know if I've got the valve cover bolts in the right places. I assume that with the way the wire looms may go, that the bolts with the studded heads will be in front. However, I have no pictures to verify this. If any of you could go out and take a picture of each valve cover in your engine bay, or simply tell me if I've got things correct or not, I'd appreciate it.
