Took off my other set of Valve Covers tonight and changed spark plugs. No major problems. Got my big can of Nickle Anti-seize today from ebay (20 bucks). Going to bead blast several mo parts this weekend. Drop a small bolt with the Valve covers off. Found it with a magnet and I hoping there was not another 1. Took 3 different size magnets though both heads and blew air from a wand off my air compressor. I think nothing else is in there..

Hey Scottie should have got the D-specs.

Don't get a bolt stuck in your head or else you'll look even more like Frankenstein.

Hi Cody! To be honest, I don't know what the heck I'm going to do. I may just keep the Mach and turn it into a street machine, then get a used '11 on a couple of years.

I considered the D-specs but in really couldn't see spending the bucks for adjustability and never adjusting them. How often do you change yours?

All the time. When I go to the track and I set them hard for every day use until the wifey starts to complane about the hard ride than I soften them up until she stops whining.

Engine turns clockwise. I think. Or maybe it turns counter-clockwise. hmmm i gotta think on it.


Seriously if you are standing at the front of the car looking at the engine it turns clockwise. if you are sitting in the drivers seat it is turning counter-clockwise.

I thought a guy that has D-specs would know this If your going to hand crank it I would assume you are going to be in front of the car. Than engine rotation is clockwise (from the front) which for you guys in Indiana is too your right!!! Do you know your right?? That's the hand you pick your nose with!! But really the engine turns counterclockwise because everything in a car or plane is taken as if your sitting the operators seat!! Does that make sense? Who's on second??? I thought you found the missing bolt.
