I know Geoff, and i'm sure there are a lot people viewing this thread thinking "This fuk'n guy"  :lmao: :lmao:


As painful and i'm sure annoying as it's been for everyone, i'm glad i gave it a go myself. I don't like being told i can't do something and that's one thing i always tell my kids. Never let anyone tell you that you can't do or achieve something.


Besides, i still have to get everything else together and more importantly see if it even STARTS !  :thud: :lmao: :lmao:

Mate, no disrespect intended. Unfortunately my sense of humour is never far from the surface. While I have surprised myself with what I have managed to do I have so far drawn the line at getting inside an engine. I am VERY impressed with your having a go at this. I reckon the finish line is in sight.

Sorry but I don't think Cait would want to share me.

I love the way she "fills out" a swim suit . Looks like they didn't do a complete change over!  :lmao:

INTAKE INSTALLATION

I use grade 8 bolts, grade 8 flat washers and grade 8 lock washers.

If you want it fancy looking, buy ARP bolts or chrome, black or stainless allen/socket head bolts and AN style flat washers.

Clean the bejesus out of all surfaces with paper towels and cleaner making sure to clean the front of the block and the inside of the valley . This will allow the Permatex to stick to these areas when it gets smushed out by the pressure from the intake..

Clean the bejesus out of it all with paper towels again.

Quickly put contact cement around the intake ports on one head and the side of the gasket that goes to the head.

Put a thin layer of permatex around the water port on the same head and a small blob at the junction where the head meets the block.

Install the gasket carefully . once the glue sticks, the gasket aint gonna move . Press down firmly on the intake area of the gasket, not at the water port.

Quickly put contact cement around the intake ports on the other head and the side of the gasket that goes to the head.

Put a thin layer of permatex around the water port on the same head and a small blob at the junction where the head meets the block.

Install the gasket carefully . once the glue sticks, the gasket aint gonna move . Press down firmly on the intake area of the gasket, not at the water port.

Install the 4 studs in each corner of the heads.

Put a thin layer of Permatex around the water and intake ports on the intake gaskets.

Put a 6 mm bead of Permatex on the front and rear of the block where the end seals would do . Extend it onto the intake gasket by around 3 mm.

Put around a 2 mm thick bead on the intake where the cork seals would go.

Carefully Install the intake . The 4 studs will guide it into place . Sliding it front and back for alignment by very much is not good.

Use the correct torque pattern

Tighten the bolts to 12 lbs.

Retighten to 12 lbs

Tighten to 18 lbs.

Retighten to 18 lbs.

Tighten to 24 lbs.

Tighten to 24 again.

Tighten to 24 again.

Let dry for 12 hours before use.

Run for 30 minutes.

Tighten bolts to 24 lbs.

The heads have 2 studs in the center, which guide the intake on held down by nuts under the carbs.

By the look of it they should guide the intake on to its correct alignment

Do i still need the 4 studs ?

Stay tuned for this & lots more!  :lmao:
