heads are now totally rebuilt and ready for action. new SS valves, new seats, new guides, new HD springs, new retainers and keepers. new flycut. no more cracks....only had one small one after 160K miles hard to believe that these heads had 160K miles on them, to look at them now...all nice and shiney... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) here you go with some pics. rebuild of the 2056 will get serious this weekend. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif) a few pics of my other engine stuff new KB 96mm flat top pistions, rods balaned and checked, new small end bushings. Original Mahle cylinders bored and honed to 96mm and the last pic is what the heads looked like about 2 months ago when I pulled them off the motor.

Look good
BUT please don't use those stock retainers and springs. I also don't see evidence that the keepers were ground as they seem to be touching each other at both ends of the half moon.. Thats all minor stuff, but it can make a huge difference when going to any camshaft thats not 100% stock. |
