    Impressive, especially taking the timing apart and getting it back together.

    I've torn apart a 1953 chevy online 6 and a 1969 Pontiac 400 years ago. But couldn't tear down my 4.0 :eek:

    Thank you, I'm glad the job is done. I'm lucky that the heads were almost dead flat when I restored the mating surfaces. The only issue I had was the Oil pump O-ring at the base of the timing chain cover. It was cut by the sharpened edge of the oil pan. I chamfered the edge of the oil pan, so final install was a cinche.
    I also ground down any sharp edges inside the intake manifold that may impede airflow.

    I'm looking forward to the up and coming road trips, hunting seasons, and general work around the property.
    Cheers
