Re: A little late but better than never
Looks good Russ.
Just a little side note I find it eaier to pull the trans with the motor. Alot less bending over the back of the motor getting those bolts off. you can slide it out with the drives on. But pull the drives before reinstalling them. You need to check the U-Joints anyway
Good catch on the head gasket. Could of been bad.

They have worked perfect for 300 + hrs. What issues do they present???? Thought they were less prone to fail then chains + more accurate.
