Default Working on 73....

Just got my 73 and found out there was a helicoil in the head.....i removed the spark plug and it come out with it DOH !!! The motor is fresh with 30 over piston and brand new valves. I thought it deserved a "new" head. Bought one on flebay and had a buddy bead blast it for me and I resurfaced it even with my trusty piece of glass. Running sweet now !!! and looking sweet I might add. Shiny head, kohler head gasket, new autolite plug, and new grade 8 head bolts !!!

cleaned up on the vise....


surfaced !!


All buttoned up


best looking part of the motor


Not bad for an amature
