Separating the hydraulic pumps...

Power steering pump off...

Separating the timing cover...

That’s a mighty fine looking casting.

Got the cover off and the governor and oil pump out of the way, irritatingly my gear puller’s fingers are too fat to fit between the cam gear and the timing plate :P I’ll have to figure out how to get that off, perhaps with a new gear puller, and then I can pull the tachometer drive and the timing plate. After that it’s “just” a surface clean up, install the new gaskets, and reassemble.

I think it’s actually the BrakeClean that ricocheted of that one funny angle and into my face.
