Sounds good to me. 
No boring modern cars though. 
Lee, I've moved the bus stuff to a new thread in the other section, you can keep this thread going for your Gamma. |

Mine was also leaking at that seal. I had removed it to get the casing blasted and painted. it has been put back in with araldite-a bit of a bodge, but it has stopped the leak.
if you have any problems, it might be cheaper to buy a whole casing on e-bay, as i think the seal is expensive.
Coming along well. |

hi norbo that would be great,it it a new seal. if so let me know
also how does the seal leak throught that overflow hole under the waterpump
as cant see where the water gets out, theres that metal cup thing behinde the seal.think i need to try a new seal.
also does the cover need blasting and where did you put the arldite
what do i seal up. the leak was only a bit out of the hole under the pump
cheers for the comments

I had also water leaking from the pump cover.

Looking very good
