All: Wondering if anyone can forward a pic of the right front engine shroud with the engine on place. My engine will hopefully be going back in soon. I've ordered the rubber seal for this area, but still have some work to do, It looks like the gasket slot rotates about 90 degrees as it gets to the firewall. This started with a hacked and hammered mess and I've been able to get it mush closer to where I believe it should be. Any help is appreciated.

That's terrific! Nicely done. I am hoping for an 'engine out' shot of the butchered area. I'm shooting for as close to original as I can get after 50 some years, and a questionable restoration. I think I'm going to tackle the engine pad tomorrow.

As for the shape of the shelf, it is what it is... unless I'm not seeing it's issue from your picture. It has a set curve as it nears the firewall.
Regarding the channel damage (which I can see from the pic), you can get the seal channel and maybe avoid some of the "put back together" headache: https://sierramadrecollection.com/products/...AyABEgKes_D_BwE |
