Thread: 7.4 L valve spring bearing Shims

Tweet

Hi Pat,
I did find the shims so thanks
on the valves there is a bearing under the springs
we live in British Columbia mid way up the coast many miles from "bright lights"

Now I'm finding out that the head gaskets we got and the gaskets that were on it do not have the right cut outs for the coolant . Now I'm waiting for the corrects gaskets
thanks
Hank

that is called a valve rotator and is used on some heads just ex side or both intake and ex .i have some of them and yes you need to watch the head gaskets
