    Update -

    Valve cover came off without an issue. I just wiggled it forward.

    I checked the timing of the engine - all is good.

    I have an appointment in the morning, so I will resume work tomorrow afternoon. I need to change the gears, and clean the surface for the new valve cover gaskets.

    While I'm at it, I will paint the valve covers.

    I deleted my SIAS and had to buy a earlier passenger side one and these were sold as a pair. I had them powder coated. They were crusty from a junkyard and turned out pretty damn nice.

    Why'd you need a different valve cover? Didn't want to use blocking plates?

    To be completely honest that was two years ago and I can’t remember. I put headers on and removed everything. I remember I ran it temporarily with blocking plates and JB Weld putty stuffed in the tubes. I snapped a couple studs off down in there and had a hell of a time keeping them capped off. I did it right before n the beginning of Covid and I didn’t get my headers for a bit.

    some blocking plates and a tune will get you there. I plan to do it.

    Do you have bigger tires and an uncalibrated speedo? If so, you're getting better mileage than your odometer is reporting.

    Get on the highway with google maps GPS going and it'll give you a rough estimate of your actual speed. That difference is what's gonna effect mileage accuracy.

    Apparently (after a 2 minutes research) there are inline speedo calibrators you can install. The Tire size calculator on TW will show you the difference though.
