Frustrated!! Quick question

[88-378]

Well, me and my buddy degreed the cam today and put the heads on. Well, I thought I would be able to put the lifters in after like on any other make (Dodge, Chevy)!!

So, i have to loosen the head bolts and lift the head a little to get them in. Will my new gaskets be ok?

 

[liljoe07]

What type of gaskets?

FRPP made by Felpro

You should be fine. As long as they werent ran, you should be good. Ive done this in the past......

 

[88-378]

No, it wasn't ran. It is a fresh rebuild..

 

[liljoe07]

I shouldn"t have told you that, this is not my Junk. What I do on mine, will only effect my stuff. I was typing, talking on the phone, and not thinking.

Don't feel bad, lotts of us have made that same mistake at one time or another...


As long as you haven't run the motor thay should be fine.

I don't know if I am going to take a chance for a $50 part. May just get a new one to be safe.
