    Stealth, would be mighty kind of you if you could send that link. Hopefully someone will be able to tell me if I can install the studs with engine remaining in vehicle. Many thanks.

    Coolant pushing through overflow tank

    Thanks Tbrumm, some good information in that article. Could turn out to be useful should I hit a snag. Mel didn't use studs so still wondering about head install with them while engine is in the vehicle. I understand how studs are worth it but if they will get in the way of reinstalling the...

    Coolant pushing through overflow tank

    I'm trying to calculate how much I'm gonna need to get this head job done. Looked at ARP studs, holy cow, not cheap! Is there another company that sells these studs? I'm wondering if I'll even have the clearance to install the heads with studs without removing the engine? If I remove the...

    Thank you everyone. At the very least, I am headed in the right direction in getting the overdrive diagnosed. Unfortunately, I just discovered what I think is a head gasket leak (I have another thread on this issue). Kinda short on money and have a 3 week vacation coming up so will not get...

    Coolant pushing through overflow tank

    Black Dawg, studs are a good idea. Will add that to my list. 79jasper, sorry you couldn't see the pictures. I don't know what happened, but I'll try again. How do I explain to a machine shop how to resurface the heads? 2nd attempt at pictures seemed to work? Not really sure what I'm...

    Introduction and Gear Vendors Issue

    I'd really rather try not to call gear vendors if possible. I'm hard of hearing and I have to use a video relay system with a sign language interpreter to make phone calls. That can get to be a real pita when I start using technical terms that the interpreter may not understand. Thanks...
