Re: Trying to solve a LT-1 engine problem
Patrick the original heads that came with the car in 1971 were rebuilt with new seats, one of them was bad, I found a complete matching set with good date codes also rebuilt with new seats, one of those is leaking, my first one I sold since I had a matched set, now one of those is bad, and the other one I think doesn't leak, I will find out in a few days after I remove the manifold and get it under pressure, if I find a new or replacement head I will have to swap out the valves, springs etc to the replacement one, then I can hope it isn't bad also, my luck with heads isn't very good, and yes I will not have hardened seats installed
