I should add a disclaimer, "don't try this at home"

Most of us couldn't even if we wanted to!!!

How long had you had the EGR delete before doing all this?

reminded me of when I rebuilt a 351C, in the back corner of our Livingroom. (to cold out.. in R.I.)

Nice work Roy.

Thanks for all the compliments guys. I've got it apart again right now . Nothing I did wrong, seems the machine shop can't make intake valves seal properly. It ran pretty good, but had a low toned thump and shake, and the intake was way too noisy. Needless to say, I'm getting pretty good at working on these Did a pressure test before I pulled the heads, with the intake off, and most of the 16 intake valves were leaking some @100 psi, a few of them were so bad I about couldn't keep my hand over the intake port . The machinist will take care of me, even reimbursing my labor, so we're good there. We'll see what he has to say when I bring the heads in on Monday...

Aw, a never-ending project. I had a Jeep like that. Money holes.

Dang that sucks! I'd hate to do that again since you had to go through so much to get the heads off.
