I am letting the Head builder take his time on these Heads, I even paid him in advance, the fact that he is cutting all 8 Intake Bosses as a matter of his own practice procedure, says he is meticulous, perhaps he knows which process to use and when?
For the record, this motor never smoked, however I had in my spare parts, within the gasket set, were the positive and Umbrella seals, thus I deduced that the former owner never addressed the Heads, so I installed them where they could do some good.
This 1967 428 ci HO Engine is stock and possibly Blue printed and balanced to spec. for the very reason that the lower end has been tampered with. Who goes into the lower Crank and pistons and race tricks the pistons if not there making the best of racing ability to stay within scca rules for example only, as I stated before, my own father sent his motors out to be Blueprinted and Balanced for racing in Gymkhana's on Long Island N.Y. @ Mitchel field, former air force base, before the Nassa Coliseum was built.
