And here are some from the repairs to my leaking rear cam cover. We skipped the disassembly pictures as they are the same as Martin's, with the exception of colors for the most part.
7) rear cam cover lying upside down on the engine, frontal shot of the rear bank of cams. The lower intake has already been cleaned in this photo.
8) Despite the brake booster vacuum line in the foreground, you can see on the right side of the photo that the camshafts are indeed hollow. There is some wear on the journals (lobes) of the cams, but nothing out of the ordinary.
9) a shot of the exposed head and twin rear cams. You can see the valve springs on the exhaust cam here, and against the firewall, the springs and finger followers for the intake valves.
10) A closeup of the timing chains and a bead of high-temp valve cover gasket sealant that I should have put on during mod day #1.
11) While I don't look too happy in this photo, we're both glad to be reattaching the rear cover again. I'm waiting for the
click from the torque wrench to let me know the bolt is torqued down properly.
12) There's nothing the like the grin of realizing the last cam cover bolt is securely fastened down. With the hard bit over, we finished the car up in short order.
