Just did the LIM gasket job again and have to tell you guys the Push Rod Tool from Lisle (LIS48500)http://www.denlorstools.com/home/dt1/page_2522_125/lisle_lis48500_push_rod_remover.html
works AWESOME! Definitely saves a couple hours.
Also, I tried doing the job without removing the valve covers. I just undid the tops and loosen the bottoms. It did not work as the valve cover gaskets stretched (wanted to stay with the LIM) and would not go back in the grooves. I ended up removing the Valve covers and replacing the gaskets.
Felpro Pro LIMG kit came with them.
Also, after installing both the GM kit and Felpro Kit, I would recommend using the Felpro Pro kit over GM. :licka:
