Removing 340 heads

Drain coolent, while coolent is draining, remove dist cap and wires, then remove carb. next pull battery cable, positive. disconect wiring to alt and temp sending. Move wiring out of the way. Remove valve covers. remove alt and brackets. remove top rad hose, and bypass hose. remove heater hose from engine side. move heater hoses out of way. Remove intake. remove rocker shaft from both sides. remove push rods. If you are going to reuse any of the valve train parts, mark them to go back in the same place. remove exhaust manifolds. On the drivers side you wont be able to remove manifold, just remove bolts and lay it out of the way. might have to move it a few times to get to all the head bolts. Removing manifods is the tough part. Remove head bolts and then pull heads. You are going to get lots of coolent flowing when you pull heads. Normal. If car has AC, Im not versed on that, need others advice. Good luck. :burnout:MT
