Finally, after about 6 weeks of my Camaro Z28 sitting there with a blown head gasket, i finally get 2 days off in a row to take it apart and change it....today being the first day...

now, we all know that the LT1 motor is typically a pain in the ass to work on...tight spaces, about 1/3 of the motor is underneath the cowl, so it makes it even harder to get your grubby hands in there...but i managed to get my fat hands in there and do what needed to be done.

so far, i got the intake, fuel rails, wiring harnesses, alternator, valve cover gaskets and the pushrods out...whats left is the removal of the exhaust manifolds, and the heads themselves, cleaning, and then of course replacement. what i thought was gonna be a 2 day job...im now projecting 4 days of total work, unless i get a day where its not fucking 90 degrees and more humid than a hot tub then i can probably do it all non-stop.

low and behold, the ultimate surprize...what i found when i pulled off the valve cover gaskets...well, the pics can do the talking from here...i would have to say that it looks like thata shmegma that babies puke up after they are burped, or chunky cumshots mixed with cheese.







sorry about the blur...this camera sucks, im just borrowing it for this

 

caution asphault is not good for your intake mating surface

 

btw phinger like my sig?

 

oh i know....i placed that thing on the ground like it was a cracked egg lol...that and its not resting on any part thats internal anyways.
you left your alternator on??? that was the first thing i took off.
yea, your sig is funny, but the car needs to be white

BTW, were you at QSL last week? (not yesterday, the thurs before)

 

nah I've never been to qs&l, you might have my car confused with sneakin's alot of people do that

 

ahh gotcha...hey hit me up on aim...

 

yea im gonna have my uncle inspect them (he rebuilds cars, has been for 30 years almost). i wish i could put new heads on it, i just dont have the money for new ones.

 

PHINGER YOU GOT ALL THE CASH! Sell your Alero!!

I just noticed Alex and Deacon have the same looking car

btw Phinger, Id get your uncle to replace the stuff in the heads of possible, or atleast rebuild them, I remember you saying they were never worked on, best to get new valve guides/seals/exhaust valves, or you will see your car smoking

 

yeah I could be kenny's stunt double
