I was un-aware they were cupped to start with! as you can imagine, I have quite a few laying around and none exhibit any cup-ish-ness. Can't imagine why they would want them to be cupped, I would think that would consume a good part of the torque you're putting on the bolts or some such. I'm confused. again....

May 11, 20186 yr comment_549147 Thanks for that. I work on a lot of stuff, make mistakes sometimes. At least I could provide the correct part numbers.

Cliff, @siteunseen I am sorry to correct you but you are actually correct. The original head bolt washers have a smooth edge on the top side and a sharp edge on the bottom side. Got your back! :) Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/59852-new-head-install-question/?&page=3#findComment-549231 Share on other sites More sharing options...
