Hi.
Thank you for responding.
Do i have to plane grinding the heads?
Is it a valve stem seals on an 1987 engine?
We have now disassembly, heads and cylinders. Thanks Goran
Hm.. i will talk to the owner tomorrow. It looks like we have to put it
together in this condition. The machine shop are on holiday.
Return aug. 2. Need to bore the cylinders. He want to drive now.
Will take the machine work in the winter. Do i need something extra on the gaskets, permatex or something? Thanks Goran
