impostor Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Do I really need it to finish my head gasket job? The engine is out but not on a proper stand yet. I had read that installing the heads with the engine vertical will work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willy Fisterbottom Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 You can fit and tighten up the inlet manifold before tightening cylinder heads to align the cylinder heads, but only if you don't have dwel pins to locate them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impostor Posted March 11, 2015 Author Share Posted March 11, 2015 Thanks guys. Mine has dowel pins but they fit a tad looser than I'm used to from the EJ world. Got it back together, now just waiting on valve cover grommets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
