Update.
Lapped the valves, gasket looked to have failed. Glazed bores got a little flash rust while getting the heads done but no scoring so hopefully the pistons and rings are OK. I put a 3.75 flex hone down the bores, new blue felpro 8518PT head gaskets and will see if that solves the water-in-oil and blowby problem. Bolts torqued to 95ft lbs,, a little more (105) on center bolts. We have a problem on getting the exhaust pushrod in on the #8 cylinder. The AC blower box is in the way! Can't remember how I did this back in the day. Not the first time I've had heads off an early AC car. I think I had removed the passenger motor mount bolt, and jacked up that side of the engine until it fit? Any ideas? Last edited by elefantrider; 04-01-2023 at 10:31 AM. |
