The book "How to rebuild small block Chevy LT1/LT4 Engines" says about these plugs with the hole in the front; "these are an oddball size you may be forced to reuse them. Coat them with locking compound then apply a two part epoxy to assure a good seal" I just reused mine. I was wondering about head bolts, can I reuse them, is that wise or should I get new ones? As for the oil galley plugged by that ball in the back, I told the machinist to remove it and then clean the motor and then reinstall. Hopefully he did. I checked the mains with plastiguage and have 2 - 2 1/2 thou. on all. Still have to check the rod clearance. |
