Re: 074 head repair
Head is not that bad...water is in the heat crossover due to drilling the exhaust stud too deep. Spoke with several shops today and we all agree no harm in letting the water be in the heat tube..going to block it off at the manifold with a stainless plate under the intake gasket..should seal the water out of the intake and Im good to go..will keep everyone posted on how it works out..thanks
