Need valve seat. Don't know exact one to get?! Help


Recommended Posts

The valve seat is harder than the valve the first thing to ware is the valve. It is quite a task to replace them why do they all need replacement?

Buy valve seats, new valves, pay machinist... or just buy a new head all set up...$190 or so. You can get kits of varying level of completeness. Check E-Bay

I purchased and installed a complete new head with valves installed,new bolts, gasket, and gasket goop. Installed it and have put 50 thousand miles on it.

 

Ebay cost 220 bucks.

 

I did have an overheating problem but it was due to either defective or just the hard use on the thermostats.  They failed.

 

Drill at least one 1/8 hole in every thermostat you ever install.

 

I still have the original head if someone wants it they can have it for shipping costs...
