Full shower dude. I'm not an animal.Originally Posted by ItHurtz
I got the screws all cleaned up, ready to (temporarily) pop the valve covers back on. Ran into a little setback. Tore the last two grommets while pushing them onto the screw tubes. First six went on fine. Maybe I got excited. Oh well. Ordered a grommet set off Amazon. A $10 mistake but I'll have some spares for when I do the same thing next time.
Gasket surface is clean though.
That's pretty much the extent of what I did today. I was all set to peel the front cover off and get started on the cam instal since it got delivered today. However, I decided to hold off on that. While inspecting the cam, I noticed some rust. Admittedly it wasn't a lot, but what was there felt pretty bad. Deep enough to catch a fingernail. It was on every lobe and the the journals. Looks like they packaged it while it was still wet with grinding coolant. No rust inhibitor. I messaged the seller. We'll see what they say.
