Re: [Amc-list] Off with it's head!

This car came with a Felpro full-engine gasket kit, dated
1985. All of the top-end gaskets are all missing. A few of the
exhaust valves use different keepers (three-groove instead of
one), so I'm guessing someone did a valve job around 1985 or so.

I cleaned off a couple of valves by hand to better inspect, and
there's normal seat wear. I was gonna clean and reassemble, but
I think it would be silly not to do a basic valve job while it's
apart. I have plenty of spare valves and all of them look usable.

The head and parts are at the local machine shop for a dunking.
I'll see what Nelson the machinist thinks. He's good with old
stuff and good at thinking on his feet.
