Certainly do, and the inspiration mostly comes from here.

but I ended up with a plane chrome 6 cyl valve cover from ebay.
on your turbo 350 trans mount bolt holes some of them had metric bolts
and the older ones were standard threads .
so that's how they get stripped from people putting the wrong bolts in them .
also where the shift lever bolts on they can be metric or standard too .

I think you are right Jim.
When I shone a light up the bolt hole, there was pretty much no thread, so I knew both had to be redone, it's such a simple process.
Got in from work tonight and Mrs Boss said in passing there was a parcel for me in her car.
Unpacked it...... Joe Gibbs HR-1 oil for running in the motor and some thread sealer.
Getting excited about getting the motor back together with all the new parts.
