Time to REVEAL the SOURCES!

So WHO is REALLY behind the scenes on this "Engine Blog"? That would be Gessford Machine, George Anderson and Neil Groff. You DO know Gessford was named National Machine Shop of the year in 2004, don't you? Neil, engine assembly man SAVED me from an OIL BATH with his excellent tip on Marvel Mystery Oil. Eh eh, and you guys thought I had a clue? I am a grass hopper at the feet of the masters!

:

George passed on these cam shaft retainer tips to "us". Read more here:

Note my OLD retainer bolts were phillips screws. I purchased ARP retainer bolts and a SPECIAL GESSFORD camshaft gear retainer washer from George.

Retaining plate oil groove UP and facing OUTSIDE.
