But I don't see any need to replace it yet :glasses7:
It is running clean and strong. I had just 40 thousants taken off for my daily driver with a little bigger valves Frank 66aCUDA built (ford valves I believe) all new seals guides ready to be put on one day.

I'm not positive but....I think you should torque in steps. In other words as you follow the numbers in the sequence, Don't go to "Full" torque the first time. I have always run through the sequence 3 or 4 times and then went to full torque.. This is how I always have & will do it whether it says it in a book or not. Very nice & clean looking under your hood. Good luck, I hope you have great results.
I thought about adding that but I was hopping he already knew that =D>
Yes X2 =D>
