Ive heard horror stories about mr gasket head gaskets leaking. So if i had .040 taken off the heads, i would have to have the intake milled? Thats only .005 or so from stock. Machinest quoted me $80 per head
stock 1978 360, 974 heads. How much should i have milled off the heads to achieve the stock compression ratio? I already have the fel pro 8553 head gaskets. Thanks
Going to bring my heads to a machine shop for a valve job. Should i have hardened exhaust valve seats installed? Yes or no? They are out of a 1976 dodge charger. Mild 360 in a dart. Hoping for 300 hp. Thanks
1st pic is #6 lifters. 2nd pic is #1 lifters. The lifters are too far down to put a straight edge across so i measured from the top of the lifter to the top of the lifter bore. .07, .06, .06, and .06 were the measurement. does this look right?
Found the problem. Timing chain was installed straight up matching both 0s as per directions. Installed properly i had to match the 0 on the top gear to the rectangle on the crank gear. Must be a factory defect.
