Running great now!

Just replaced my leaking intake/exhaust gaskets!. What a HUGE difference it made. I guess I was sucking a lot of air in the intake. It runs like it's brand new now. ( I have a stock F set-up) I suggest that you take a look at you gaskets since mine were badly heat baked. That is a big drawback to having the intake and exhaust on the same side of the head.. I put in new studs while I had it apart as well. I'm ready for summer now!.

Keep an eye on it as you may need to retorque the bolts once things settle.
