So i pulled the cylinder heads off a 1970 1.7L engine and they look really pretty . . . (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/icon8.gif)
This is my first Type IV to dismantle so does anyone have any suggestions? How does it look? I also took off the oil filler assembly and found 1/2" of rusted out gunk on the area below the breather assembly. How do i clean this out? Should I crack the case and just start from the beginning?

The fins are only for cooling. The cylinder mates of the head at the cylinder wall only. In fact, if your fins are hitting the head, it can cause sealing problems. |
