Got the 4-6 bank all buttoned up and started to tear down the 1-3 side. Much quicker this time since I have the experience of doing the other side under my belt. My thinking is since the motor is out, I will replace springs and lifters on both sides as well as even up the head surface amounts.
Got all the way down to the head studs and hit a snag.
I know there is a small bolt hiding behind the upper chain guide (see earlier post for how came to know this so well). However, that chain guide did not seem to want to drop down to give me access to that bolt. I undid the rail pivot pin on the side of the head but the guide seems to hold firm. I know there is one deeper back, but I still have the transmission bolted to the motor and can not see where that pins head is accessed.
So, question for the experts....should that guide pivot downward with just the front pivot pin out? If not, where is the rear pin located?
Thanks in advance for any guidance...
This is a 3 chain motor.
