    Great job dude hey do you need to take off the pan to get to the timing chain cover gasket I have a bit of leak also I have really good risers but want to keep it that way it was a freshwater engine but now it's in miami so naturally going to be using in saltwater think if I paint it inside with good rust engine paint will help or it's kinda pointless? Thanks in advance would like a 2nd opinion

      Hi. and Thanks for watching!
      The chain cover cannot come off without removing the pan. it has a lip which holds the gasket, and the gasket is fastened between the oil pan and the block. the only way to do this, is if your willing to cut the gasket right where the lips are, and then reseal is with silicone, but this is very unlikely to hold. As for the paint, painting will always help prevent rust. so if you can get a good clean surface, then its worth doing a quick coat or 2 of paint. The best option is to do, is to bring the block down to bare metal, prime it, then paint it. but this is not always an option. I hope this helps.

    I'd like to know what will this set one back with this type of work?

      This will vary a lot depending on damage, what is reusable, what needs to be replaced, machined, and the budget of the customer. But generally a full rebuild similar to this could range from 1.5-5k USD. quite a range. Most rebuilders will quote the higher prices at first simply because its no possible to estimate the internal damages until the motor is fully inspected. I hope this helps.
