    They don’t have the upper gasket for the water pump housing . Luckily they have the lower one . I tore that one . The upper one looks to be still in not bad shape . Any other source for these ?

    I want to put the LU in the blast cabinet for paint prep . I guess I should plug all the holes and seal it up as best as possible ..The whole shift shaft assembly looks kinda scary to me . Is there any reason I should be digging into that ?
