I was planning an overhaul in a couple of months. But this will be more extenive. The #4 cylinder will need to be sleeved; we'll see what the others look like. I wouldn't be surprised if the rod is shot, too. I'll have to check the cam carefully. it might have taken a beating on those lobes.

I'll also have to replace the oil cooler and flush the lines, since the cooling pump was on.

The heads are from Dart, and ported by Gordon Levy. They've been in use for 4 years. Although I did replace the springs at the last overhaul. Not sure what I'm going to do about heads, yet.

Lash caps?
