Well, the parts have started arriving and surgery is Saturday! I am kind of looking forward to pulling the IMS and seeing how bad it is.
New bearing, clutch and RMS are on the menu. Hopefully the new oil filter and magnets will catch any remaining, free floating metal. Maybe I can get another 10K or more out of the engine.
If the engine continues to run well after 500 or 1000 miles, I plan to replace the water pump, thermostat and timing chain actuator guides.
I got the clutch from RockAuto. I think it was $284 with shipping. Luk clutch with Sachs stamps. I have had good luck with Luk clutches before. Will be checking the flywheel once we get it apart.
