I’m going to get my head checked out, serviced, or rebuilt but I don’t want the hassle of packing, shipping, and down time, so I’ll use a sort of local shop called the “Cylinder Head Depot” that is 45 minutes away. If the condition of the head dictates, I would like to go with the stainless steel, Chevy valves and associated parts. If I have the Chevy valve discussion with the shop, I want to be as informed as possible, so we can communicate well, stay on point, and have a positive outcome.
The process and parts info I’m finding here on Mud has all been about 2Fs. However, when I search OEM valve train part numbers, I see that the F.5 and the 2F share the same valves, guides, springs, retainers, and locks. So, it appears that the stainless parts info I gather from the 2F conversions would apply to my F.5. I’m hoping someone can confirm this.
I haven’t found all the parts info in one thread so I’ve been gathering bits & pieces and putting it together so I can print it out and if the shop has any doubts or questions, I can present my info to them and say this is what I want.
So, what I’m hoping for, is that someone here in the know would look over what I’ve put together and let me know if my part numbers will work. Also, any additional info, part manufactures, or part numbers would be most welcome.
Here is what I’ve gathered so far. And thanks in advance for any input.
