I need to do an update on my engine rebuild thread but thought I would make this a seperate post.
I need a little help in sourcing two valve spring seats. (the little cup shaped washer between the valve springs and the head) For some reason the PO faild to put the spring seats on the intake side when he rebuilt the engine. I know it can be hard to tell if they are installed or not so I used a magnet on a pick to see if they are there or not. They are definately missing on the intakes side. Luckily the enging was never fired up with out the spring seats.
