My driver's side engine tin rubber seal is all beat and missing part of the "v" section (or lip) that is supposed to interlatch with the tin.
Can these be replaced with motor in the car? If so, how much cursing is involved? Also, anyone have a good used driver's side engine tin rubber seal they want to get rid of? |

It can be done, but you will wonder if it was easier to just drop the motor 3 ".
Also, th emore likely culprit for overheating is blockages at the fan area, get a mirror and take a look, this and at the oil cooler (which would require you to remove the engine and tin. Hopefully you can see the problem with the mirror. |

Hopefully you can see the problem with the mirror. I did not see anything blocking in the fan/impeller (sock, bag, rag, leaves, etc...). |
