    I was thinking the same thing :D

    I'm seeing some valve cover gasket and associated maintenance, CV boots, LCA bushings, and welding sliders in my near future.

    Many hands make light work! I bet some of the CT folks would come around too

    Sure do. Going to do the cam shaft plugs, spark plug gaskets, PVC valve (I don't even know what this PVC business does :oops:) etc along with the VCG

    CV boots are not torn, but dried and cracking, and the cracks are covered in shoe goo :anonymous:

    That front end(?) pop we tried to figure out a while back is still there. I took some video's of the LCA bushings while turning the wheel back and forth in my driveway. Looks like they have some play, I think they're not supposed to have much at all? :notsure:

    With the valve cover gaskets you'll need the valve cover gaskets, spark plug tube gaskets, black RTV, and upper and lower intake plenum gaskets. Rockauto has a kit for the valve cover gaskets. PCV valve creates a vacuum in the valve covers from a check valve (PCV valve) (i think that's what it does, I can't remember) and when the PCV valve is no good it usually allows oil into your intake tube and throttle body
