Re: Advice on removing engine?

Using positive valve seals on intakes:
I would NOT run the sheet metal baffles.
If the engine displays any kind of excessive oil consumption then install baffels at later date. Head does NOT have to be removedto R&R baffles.

Bottom line:
If the positive oil seals do not do the job they are supposed to do then the baffels can be installed later.

BUT!!!!! If the positive seals do too good of a job AND the baffels are in place then the valves could starve for oil.

I am assuming u are running the rocker arms that do NOT have the pee hole as early 55 had.

What kind of umbrella seal did u use on exhaust???
