I ordered these on the 1st!!

Very impressed with the service and the fact that they look like a substantial improvement to the paper thin felthroughpro gaskets!!

Would highly recommend Vic Hubbard Speed and Marine to anyone if this is an example of how they do things!!

Now - it will probably take me a couple of weeks to get the energy to change them!! HAHAHAHA

dang
it

later,

hahahahahahahahahaha
burp

well, with the help of one of my sons, i got the manifolds seperated and off etc.

put the new RemFlex gasket on and start "TRYING" to get the nuts to even start with all the triangles, conical washers and brass washers where they go!!

not gonna make it

turns out that when the head was " rebuilt " the guy that did all the cleaning and shaving for me after i ported and polished
put short studs in the holes and with the really thin gaskets I can use them

with this really nice new fancy gasket - not so much!
LOL


so - i put double washers on each and tightened them close enough

gonna hope beyond all hope that it works

toll ya

if it weren't for bad luck
i wouldn't have any luck at all!!

later

The studs are like $.99 each at Oreilly auto parts. I would have put the right length studs back in the head.......
