[QUOTE="jrgoffin, post: 15112187, member: 4360"] Good to hear, Matt - crisis averted! That page I posted should also be good reference for anyone doing this in any case. One favor to ask since we have the same blocks: can you get a pic from the valley of one of the heads showing any of the studs (if you have one before the covers went on)? I'm curious about how far yours threaded in. Since my block came from a PP car, the bores for the original head bolts may not have been as deep as the production blocks, but the studs still stick up about 1/4" above the top of the nuts. Not a big deal, but all the other engines I have seen show them threaded down enough that the nut just covers the top. I did make sure to thread mine all the way down, and all the bores were identical in depth. Anyway, here's how mine look: [IMG]http://www.modularfords.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=139657&d=1448829024[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
