As long as it's in somewhat of a drivable state to where I can bring into the shop and time it, then it's not to much of a worry for me

 

it will get ya real close .... i used a chizzel and made a groove where it was before and just put it back on in same place .. should be fine .....

why is your needing to come off ? ... leaking under neith ?

 

The transfer pump is shot and won't deliver fuel once warmed up cause of the expansion of the head

 

I have ordered a Holley Red pump off E-bay ......
Red Holley 95 GPH Electric Fuel Pump 7 PSI 10150 | eBay

nice lil units ....

 

ok,
so got it all together and attempted to start ........... NOT GOOD SOUNDS !!!!!! thinking something either fell into a cylinder or ..... maybe th pushrods are different lengths ? .... something one cyl makes a clunk .... and of course ... now my oil cooler is leaking coolant as well ..... great ... more work .... damn this is becoming irritating ...

 

Ouch time for another tear down

 

If I have to ... I'm just gonna tow it to work and pull the engine out all together and do a complete re-do ... not a rebuild ... just a over view and investigate whats goin on ..

 

Best of luck

 

decided today i'm gonna let it fire up and see what kind of carnage it will make .... i plan on making a viedo for the fun of it as well ... will post it this weekend sometime

 

hope it doesn't go to badly haha did you port the heads yourself?
