I just bought a 340 block. Not knowing the the head face had
Copper inserted in to the head facing.
I took it to the machine shop and they said they would not machine it because they
Was afraid that they would deck it and they would cut out the copper an it might cut
To deep an put holes in the head facing.and they would have to weld back in wear the copper
Was. An would cost as much as what I paid for the block .
So what do I do now????
It's is how the use to seal the heads in
The good old days . By putting in copper around the top of the
Head facing to help seal the head. Because the head gasket back in
The day would not seal.
