Yet another reseal question thread

I've been searching a lot and found a few very useful threads on engine reseal, but every one seems to have part of the information listed.

I was thinking it would be nice to have one thread with a full parts list of everything involved with doing a reseal. Then it could be moved into the How-To documents.

I'm going to be pulling my motor next week hopefully to tackle it since it's leaking oil like a sieve right now.

I know there are the valve covers, which I did once, but may do again to get the practice, the rear main seal, front main seal, a couple that deal with the oil pump, cam seals (and caps?), and what else? (P/N's if possible)


Thanks,
Matthew

Re: Yet another reseal question thread

Another question, what exactly are the cam caps?

I was talking to someone at my dealer today and I think we were thinking of different things. He said that the cam caps were something that was machined with the cam and not sold separately. But I see so many mentions of them here that I'm guessing that's not the case.

Thanks
