well i finely got my car on the road Monday. getting the head off was a nightmare. but after that everything went good. i removed the studs and had the head milled. also had the radiator fixed, it had a leak in it. i found that #4 exhaust valve was burnt. i replaced it and one outer. and laped them in. new valve guides and springs. the car runs better then it has ever ran for me. there is more power then it ever has had for me. also it seems to run smother
