SLO-030 Posted March 20, 2009 Report Posted March 20, 2009 Just go with the spring washers :y: Dunno bout the loctite but i reckon the nylon that gives "Lock nuts" their "Lock" may melt when exposed to the high temp of the headers. Quote
Jason KE30 Posted May 31, 2009 Author Report Posted May 31, 2009 Hey everyone. Got a little update for you guys. I'm doing the head gasket this arvo as my engine has been running like piss lately, using coolant and overheating. So I've got the head off, just waiting for Ryan to come around with the old torque wrench so we can get this new sucker on. But just wondering, How do you do the valve stem seals on these K motor heads? I figure its probably worth doing it now while the head is off. Oh and i'm also on the lookout for extractors so if anyone has got some for sale, I will gladly take them off your hands :rolla: Cheers Jason Quote
Raven Posted May 31, 2009 Report Posted May 31, 2009 You need a valve spring compressor to do it. With the right tools, it should take you no more than 20 mins to change all the valve stem seals over. Quote
