    also i have a slight oil leak from what looks like the sump.
    its not to serious but i would still like to fix it.
    i have a engine crane and a few friend s and my instructer at tafe. so lifting the engine out slightly shouldnt be a problem.
    my question is how much are replacement sump gaskets to buy?
    and are they hard to change?

    ive heard my leak could also me my rear main seal. how do u go about changing the seal?
    whats the seal worth?

    gasket $20ish
    a real pain in the arse.
    lifting the engine is not enough, either remove or lift and drop the k frame.
    rear seal is a biggy to.
    search here for many write ups on how to do both.
