Good morning gentlemen-the engine rebuild tech weekend isn't forgotten but I wanted to see if we could get a easier to pull off tech day going on one or more common tasks that people would like to see.
- valve adjustment - FI component testing - installing in tuning dual carbs - adding a front or rear sway bar - rear caliper brake adjustments - installing turbo tire rods Any of those jump out as worthwhile topics? Other ideas? |

Hi there. Valve adjustment (easy) or a replacement of the valves with the head off the engine ( much more involved )?

Hi there. Valve adjustment (easy) or a replacement of the valves with the head off the engine ( much more involved )? Valve replacement is not a do it yourself job. If you have to replace the valves you may also need to replace seats and guides. Checking if they need replacement is a DIY job. Engine build is more like a 3 day class. It could be broken up to many smaller jobs. |
