Left Bank Smoking
Hi All,
Just wondering what is the availability of parts to have my heads rebuilt . I'm assuming this is now necessary since the left bank is beginning to smoke pretty bad. Thanks Mark Hoyt Reading Penna. |

Re: Left Bank Smoking
Kanter.com and ebay both have head gaskets. Pistons are hard to find now, but alot of other parts are availabe.

Re: Left Bank Smoking
I also had a smoking problem mostly at idle I picked up a upper rebuild kit with head gaskets and valve guides around $45 from rock auto.com... But the valve guides are only rubber "O" Rings. If I was to redo again I would have matched the size and picked up 6 "O" Rings for a couple bucks.
Also has anyone attempted using newer style valve guides caps from a 350 or 454 heads ????? my smoking problem did stop for a few months but is slowing coming back Hope this helps you |
