Got my heads, which gaskets to use?

[broncoman6524]

I'm confused...I forgot something when I put it together what is it?

What about here?

I'm itching to get to drive this pig again...been like 2 months...suckssss.

Guess it's a good thing though, I'm fixing the things I should have done a long time ago.

Ex, replace pass floors, both rockers. Pull out all the carpet and install my new carpet from christmas

Scraping the glue off the wheel wells SUCKS...Stabbed myself horribly with the razor scaper thingy.
Looks good though.

Adjusted the exhaust hanger so it comes apart, and doesn't hit the frame.

BTW..it's missing the heads.

BTW..it's missing the heads.

I was gonna say the carb or power steering pump. Or the ballancer or the 4th stud in the water pump.

Looking good though.

 

[broncoman6524]

haha, yeah...those too. They in the shop, just not on.

Who'd you get your carpet from? And how is the fit and finish?

 

[broncoman6524]

I got the whole set from a company off ebay.

Decent fit, it's not 100% installed yet, the wheel wells and rear are look like they are going to cover well.They are just set in there so they can "bake" or whatever to the shape they're supposed to be in.

No holes are cut, so the front is not any where close to installed. Gave to cut holes for the shifter and 4x4 shifter.

I'll update more as I finish it, and give you my final verdict.

So I got my heads today, Patriot freedom series. 64cc chamber, 190cc runner, 2.02 1.60valves.

I was looking at the sheet that they came with, according to it, it states to 1004 or 1094 head gasket. Both are fel-pro numbers.

They are both ones that use the steel ring thingy, I was told or read in a magazine that these are not suggesting with aluminum heads because of their mettallic properties. like the aluminum and the cast iron corrode.

Soo, what should I do here?

If the heads are aluminum you should run the Fel-Pro 1010 gasket, these are meant for aluminum heads and will not brinnel the heads. Those are what i run with my AFR heads.

My cousin runs something similar. Only difference is the F### he runs them on. I only use Felpro gaskets now-a-days.

Did you soak those lifters? They look pretty dry?!?

 

[broncoman6524]

In that picture they werent, I took them back out and did soak them.

 

[chevyuser74]

soaked lifters?

soak em in oil, to fill, and purge air out of them by pushing a pushrod in them.
