Gerry, I got more problems
By Geoff McNew - 02/25/2003 4:55:35 PM; IP 66.52.140.228
I started to tear down these old CJ heads with single spring and dampner and umbrella seals. I find that the guides (bronze) have been knurled. They also were cut down to fit a dual spring with the PC seals at one time. The spring seat around the guides looks tortured to put it best. I don't think you can use the teflon PC seals with knurled guides b/c of lack of oil? I'm thinking I now have my excuse(s) to go with the Edelbrock heads.

I spoke with Edelbrock and these heads use a 5792 single spring with dampner and regular umbrella seals; I get 130 lbs at 1.885" and around 330 lbs. open, which should be fine, agree?

From the FE forum I see just about everyone loves their Edelbrock heads. Way to go?
