Update for anyone that is following this thread.

Got the intake manifold off. Wow! that Right Stuff sealer is really grippy. I wasn't sure if I was going to break that seal. I think I found my leaky spot.

Anyway, I took the passenger side VC off just to see since I knew I wasn't getting the heads off tonight.

The VC gaskets are the ones with the blue rubber inserts. They weren't really stuck fast too tightly.

I don't get why I am supposed to look for self-aligning rockers. There are pushrod guides already on the heads. Sorry, I'm tired and can't think of the real name for them.

Anyway, I will probably get the heads off over the weekend and then drop them off at the machine shop Monday. Might be putting it back together next weekend...or the one after that.
