Hi Pete,
I have a 318 engine, which has no valve adjustment at all, so does the preload still apply.

Cheers

Yes Pete
All in same order as came out.

Hi Guys, Advice please. I’m just about to reinstall my original hydraulic lifters and wondered if there’s anything I need to do prior to install. Do I just put them back ,do I need to remove the oil from them or do I strip down and clean each one. Just want to be sure I get it right. All the lifters...

Has anybody used Sanderson DD7 headers for small block before or what would you recommend.

Andy

Have just removed the heads or should say just the passenger side,as at this moment i cannot get access to the drivers side external bolts due to exhaust header being in the way. Any suggestions much appreciated. The pistons have carbon build up deposits on them, so what is the best way and what wit...

Cheers lads
Big sigh of relief
So on replacement would it be advisable to use a watertight sealant on the stud when fitting back to head.

Can anyone tell me if this is good or bad.
I’ve removed the exhaust headers from the heads and the rear bolt on the passenger side had water coming from it.
This in turn had rotted away the exhaust gasket.
To mean this isn’t a good sign.

Just found out that block was bored out for KB hyper pistons.
I assume these will be the KB167's

It's just going to be a mild build on a tight budget.
I've read about the KB's and some say use and others don't , seems there's a lot of issues with regards to rings.

What pistons would you recommend for a 318 with a 30 thou overbore.
Have just laid my hands on a block that's had all the machine work done, crank polished, etc.
Have never rebuilt an engine before, so any advice appreciated.

Anybody know what is the biggest tyre I can put on a 14 x 7 wheel.
Thanks

Guys
Thanks for all your input. Time to sit down and have a think as what we can do and mainly afford to do.
Cheers
Andy

Cheers Blue

Thanks for the advice guys.
Need to have a good think as what we want to achieve and start researching.
