helicoil in heads

$2,000! wow. i think i have $3,300 in the rest of the engine. The entire engine was given to me about 6 years ago for my Barracuda. My dads John Deere dealer had a '68 fastback and had a 340 for it. He gave this engine to me for my barracuda. It was at someone elses house that had rebuilt it in the early 80's and never ran it. The valve covers were off, so you could see the offset rockers. He may not have known what they were either.

So maybe next winter i will take these off and get them ported and get the full value out of them!! If they are specail i should treat them that way.

Thanks for the info! And i did get the helicoils in with no problems, it was easy. Now i just gotta put everything back together, get it to my neighbors house and take the tranny out again.

Thanks!
