I am trying to remove the drivers side head from a 1970 1.7 liter 914. The right rocker assembly was loose-- I wanted to take the head in for machine work, etc. But I now see that after unbolting the head that there isn't
enough body clearance to clear the bottom head studs. Only need about another 3/4 inch. Also, the jugs are loose after removing the head bolts--is this normal? Do I have to remove the engine? Or is there another way. I don't want to break anything... |
