if it ends up being the valvecover gaskets i have 2 that are used in good condition... pay shipping. i pulled them off my 99 stroke and replaced them because i thought that was the problem.... new ones are 60 bux EACH. if it ends up being the under valve cover harness buy them from Advance autoparts or orileys as i want to say they are like 35 bux a piece.

well i got the head off on the driver side and found out that after the two front push rods got bent pretty bad they up the lifters and pulled the lifters out very front one was flat on the roller so now need a cam and not sure what else its going to need now but probably have to pull the engine out and its no fun seeing how its in a van/bus so if any one happens to know where i can get a 7.3 cheap would be great or parts for it for next to nothing .

well i haven't been able to get back out to the bus yet but as far as i know we still need a cam shaft new lifters injector harness for both sides just to be safe and probably a new mechanic cause i hate working on any kind of van but hopefully soon with in the month we will have it back up and running.
