New gaskets for the timing cover, water pump, & oil pan
The new EGR pipe is on the way, but I've already broken the threads loose, cleaned them, applied anti-seize, and put the old one back on so I can run the engine.
The alternator bracket bosses are polished & coated with electrical grease. So is the block ground, and its stud bolt & nut are painted green (to make it obvious what it's for). The timing pointer blade is white, and so are the marks on the balancer. I also added arrows in case it's ever way off. The
JBG engine mounts look like they'll last MUCH-longer than the original design.
