I'm trying to determine if I can rework a head I took off a 1275 block. Casting is 12G1316 - based on some catalog/web data, exhaust port extras, and lister expertise, I'm running on the assumption this is a 73-74 smog head. My little shade-tree-mechanic brain is baffled by the guides for the intake valves. They have a rubber upper section sleeving the valve, with a tiny spring keeper circling the very top portion. They appear longer than the exhaust inserts. The valve springs for the intakes are also slightly shorter than the exhaust springs. Maybe as much as 1/4". Valves are 3.57" long. Can these inserts be successfully replaced with anything currently on the market? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around |
