As usal, crossed to a few groups because there are some smart people in
them...
I was at a machine shop the other day getting a set of brushes for the
alternator for my '92 Grand Caravan, and I asked the machinist about my
BHG. He said, "That's the one with the long 6 cylinder? There's only one
problem with that. The head gasket can make indentations in the softer
aluminium in the head, and a gasket won't seat properly. They make a
"shim" specifically for that engine for this case, but it's expensive."
"How much?"
"It's custom made for each engine, so it's about $80..."
Eighty bucks? in order to seal the engine rather than pull the block for
machining, etc etc? Sounds good to me!
Has anyone heard of these before?
