Are the valve seals supposed to fit flush with the valve guide? Mine certainly arent

Im not seeing a Fel-Pro head gasket at Summit. Am I missing something?

Gasket shopping list:

Any got a AC delete and Smog delete serpentine belt they like? I believe its either 72.5" or 73". Im having trouble finding a part number. If I cant, ill prolly just go to AZ to get what they have. Maybe these?

Deciding against under drive pulley's for this go around. Going to save some money there. Frankly, if Im going to spend more money I want it to be on new roller rockers.

What else am I missing? I havnt decided about the MAF and TB yet. I will wait until ive got everything assembled to figure that out. Might be more money there

Do I do a hydro test? Do I want to ask questions I may not want answers to?

AeroCoupe · Mar 11, 2023

Depends on how good you think your valve job is. My guess is they will be good to go but measure twice cut once comes to mind here.

Of all the ways to hurt myself. On a stuck spring, once it gave I jammed myself on the handle side of the compressor. Who would have thunk it

You can't work on a car and not loose blood, a few layers of skin or break a finger nail.
That's what the alcohol is for.

Cheers to that

2nd head done. Time to hydro test both :reaper:

AeroCoupe · Mar 12, 2023

Hell yeah man! Looking good and evidently the blood sacrifice to the Mustang gods paid off.

JAA · Mar 12, 2023

I’m afraid to do the hydro test.

AeroCoupe · Mar 12, 2023

It pours the water and gets a cold beer...

so far so good. One exhaust valve of the bunch made bubbles and failed the 80psi air
