Shouldn't that be in the "What tool did you buy?" thread?

Got the LIM gaskets from Rock Auto yesterday, and today the "Sure Fix" upper plenum from Ebay showed up, along with a box from Mouser Electronics (A3173B rear reading lamps for the Park Avenue).

Pulled my front manifold on the GP to replace the gasket. Decided to shoot it in some black high temp paint. I think that helps clean it up a bit.

ive been so busy...

Fixed my trucks right side wheel bearing just out of nowhere it decided to completely break and cause a horrible wobble.. almost lost my tire. no clue why or how it got like that all of the sudden.

Worked on the sunfire, cut the muffler off, wired the exhaust system back up since it had absolutely no hooks holding it up. Took the head off the engine is completely clean inside (i did seafoam it last week) the bolts holding the top plate on were loose and there was milky oil around those bolts so that may or may not answer my question as to why the oil had liquid in it. Replaced the battery and finished up a little bit more painting.
