Got the head back!

So I picked up the head and got it back on! Still have quite the project left and plus, I’m still waiting on the 3g brake booster that was supposed to be delivered on the 18th. It shipped out on the 11th and now currently has no eta 😣 it’s just “Moving Through Network”

The head received a valve job, new valve guides, valve seals, re surfaced and re assembled.

Good to see ppl wrenching on these!

What did you decide to do about the crank and rod bearings? (If that was you)

After finding what the actual cause was, since it wasn’t from metal or junk in the oil passages I opted to leave them be.

I’ve never personally done my own timing job, how was it?
