1. | Apply 1/8 in. (3.2 mm) thick layer of clay to crowns of both pistons (in the areas where valves meet pistons). | |||||||||
2. | Install new cylinder heads from this kit, using new gaskets from Top End Overhaul Gasket Kit (purchased separately). Assemble heads and valve train, and tighten headbolts to torque specifications listed in service manual. | |||||||||
3. | Turn engine (by hand) through two complete revolutions. | |||||||||
4. | Remove heads and measure the clay at its thinnest point. NOTE
NOTE The valve springs on these cylinder heads have an installed spring height of 1.835 in. (46.61 mm) which equals 180 lbs (81.6 kg) of seat pressure.
For constant operation at extreme RPMs, all four valve springs should be checked for matched, installed heights. |
Figure 4. Valve Spring Travel | ||||||||
5. | Change installed valve spring height (seat pressure) as follows: a. Compress valve springs and remove valve collar retainers, upper collars, springs, valve seals, and lower collars on all four valves. b. See Figure 4. Use shims or machine cylinder heads as required to obtain desired seat pressure (see notes above). Install lower valve spring collars, valve springs (do not install valve seals at this time), upper collars, and collar keys. Check installed spring height. c. If spring heights still do not match, repeat Steps 8a and 8b above as necessary to reach the desired installed spring height, again without installing valve seals. d. When all spring heights match, remove valve collar retainers, upper collars, springs, and lower collars. Install using new valve seals (18046-98) purchased separately. Assemble the cylinder head assemblies. e. Because of the large diameter of the springs in this kit, there may be slight interference between the spring and the rocker box. If interference is detected, the clearance in the rocker box bolts may allow enough movement to gain clearance. If not, it may be necessary to remove a small amount of material from the rocker box. | |||||||||
6. | Install the new cylinder head assemblies. | |||||||||
7. | Check assembled engine for proper installation and operation. NOTE If mechanical compression release is desired, SE Compression Release Kit (32076-04) is available. The mechanical compression release can be machined using the SE Mechanical Compression Release Fixture (94638-08). The automatic compression release will need to be removed and plug 16648 can be installed. |
