Hi all,
        First off, Joel, you can change the stats since I have acquired another
van ('91 GL Auto ) to fool with. And fool with it I must! Head is leaking
steadily despite the desparate Bars Leak tactic. So its gasket time etc.
I'm now gathering resouces and knowledge to tackle this job that I have not
done before. My strategy involves dropping the engine along with the tranny
because I have an extremely low tolerance for the prone position when
working on engines and I want to change the pan gaskets on the trans and
the diff as well. I would appreciate any insight in the dropping of the
automatic trans/engine task. I noticed that  the Bentley emphasizes caution
concerning remating the auto-trans back to the engine. Is this very tricky?
I'm at present studying all the archive info on the head-work and it is
very good stuff indeed. Its great that people on the list have provided
such a wealth of info. The List Rules! Thanks.
