My old pushrod tube "O" rings were very loose fitting on the head size (red) the block side were tight. Picked up a new set from the Bird and the fit the same, loose at the head end. When I tried to install them the ring would pull out and curl under the lip. Why? I have the old set, should I try the black ones on top too. '70 1.7 now 2056

I you have early pushrod tubes and later heads, this'll be a problem. Early heads took a smaller OD on the outer end. Different seals, too. HTH, The Cap'n
