I hope to have a chance to pick Woody's brain a bit to see exactly how he did it on a 4 post lift. I'd rather not cut the lift up for what I hope will be a one time job, and he mentioned that he had a secondary method of doing it was well. Woody, if you're reading this, I hope you don't mind a quick call sometime in the near future for a very brief tutorial as to how to go about this on a 4 post lift. I know you're a very busy guy, I'll be quick!
Does anyone know of a good tutorial for cylinder head removal and replacement?
Thanks again to all, your input is invaluable. I appreciate you all. |
Taking the heads off and then putting them back on looks like a nightmare and maybe an exercise in herding cats. I elected to get a used engine so that I could avoid an engine rebuild. Getting all the rotating parts timed doesn't look easy. Woody's place is only 133 miles from Houston, why not run up there for a visit?
