Re: Exhaust heat control valve

I was able to source a good used intake manifold at not too much money, so i will use that. In disassmebling, I actually think my exhaust leak was at the manifold between the third and fourth cylinders as i could see carbon marks. The gaskets were good, so I assume it might have been due t improper torquing, which, given the access issues, does not surprise me.

I am more concerned with whether I can pull the hydralic take up assemply out through the side of the block, or i need to pull the entire lifter assembly out through the bottom. I'll know in a day or two, once I pull a valve and see what access I have. I just don't know if the hydralic assembly will come out of the tappet body or if thy are somehow made into one unit with a keeper or something. It looks like they readily come apart from the lifter body.
