    Head pull and replace

    Yeah, I already got the heads rebuilt with new springs and the worn valves and guides replaced by a machine shop. I am not disassembling them again.

    Head pull and replace

    Can do... Instead of me guessing, tell me what to take pics of and I will do it. The engine has been pulled and is in my storage unit. I pulled one of the heads to inspect it but I will take pics of anything you want to see. Thanks for the help.

    Head pull and replace

    I have never pulled a lifter out or inspected it.... I have the driver side head off so I can see it, but what does "good" vs. "bad" look like? What am I looking for?

    Head pull and replace

    If you're not going to take the time to read the necessary information in the thread to make an educated response than don't waste my time with your "half assed" answer. The driver side head was replaced in a shop bay in which I had limited time and no help. The compression test and...

    Head pull and replace

    This is the driver side (rebuilt head) put maybe 6k on it? These pics were taken in the last couple weeks. Passenger side

    Head pull and replace

    On the first startup after the rebuilt head was installed on the driver side the chuff came back. Without the telltale sooty buildup under the valve cover could the problem still lie in the original head on the passenger side? If you haven't read all of the thread (or forget because it's so...

    Head pull and replace

    Yeah, you're right I could but I would need to slappy the head back on first. I already have the IP pulled and don't want to mess up the timing so I would need to throw that back on. The driver side head was replaced with a rebuilt one that has 8 new valves and a new guide. Also has new Typ4...

    Cleaning out

    One is in very good condition. Has 180k on it, but underneath the valve covers it looks beautiful. The other one needs rebuilt with new valves and guides. You gettin' outta the IDI adventure?

    Head pull and replace

    I have stripped this truck down to the frame and engine and I was considering a swap with my '94, but the exhaust chuff wasn't solved by the rebuilt head. (on a side note, I found two bad valve guides while disassembling the original head).... Why didn't it fix the exhaust chuff? Is there...

    '89 F250 Complete Frame

    Frame from an '89 F250 single cab, long bed. Had a 7.3idi NA, ZF5. The front axle and (most) of the engine are still on it. Check out the pics. The rust is on the surface only. The frame was tarped up until maybe 6 months ago? while I parted out the rest of the truck. Here is the...

    No power steering to right

    Okay guys thanks. It's not my work truck anymore so it is just sitting and patiently waiting for me to get to her. I will post pics and results if work and my kids ever let me be for five consecutive minutes.

    Can I get new steering boxes or is this a junkyard mission?

    No power steering to right

    Hey guys, it has been a long time! Frankenstein has been an absolute bulletproof tank for all that I have put it through even with the 230k, 2 quarts of oil a week, pulling a trailer 5 days a week 8 months a year and plowing the rest it just keeps on truckin'! This truck has absolutely blown...

    ZF5 Tranny

    Guys it has been a while! I parted out most of my '89 single cab 7.3 5 speed last Winter, but I still have the tranny, engine, and frame complete. I also still have my CC Frankenstein which has lost power steering to the right only.... Any ideas? Anyway, for now I am selling the tranny and...

    Valve Sticking? Bad Injection Pump? Going Mental?

    I have an ongoing issue with a chuff in my N/A '89. All my research led me to a bad valve so I had a used set of heads partially rebuilt (just the exhaust valves and one bad guide, one bad seat). Cost me roughly $600 for the machine shop work on them. Add in new headbolts ($50/head) and...

    72 International PU DROOLING

    Call me a noob or a youngin' or anything else you want, but I did not know IH made pick ups. I recognize the grills and body styles now that I am searching through pics but I am relatively new to my appreciation for all things International. That is a real cool pick-up and would be awesome...

    Head pull and replace

    I replaced the head that had the gunky rockers on the driver side. The pics of the cylinders are from the driver side. The passenger side is the side that had the rockers that looked like they were dipped in honey... I did not pull the head on that side. I have the head in my storage unit I...

    Head pull and replace

    Update on the head job.... Took me four days to get it tore down and back together. Unfortunately I only got one head on. I couldn't get my hands on a cherry picker so I knew I was going at it by hand so I decided to replace a rusty quarter panel to give me better access to that side of the...
