Yeah it was, :eek  it looked like they never ran anti-freeze in it and it had a lot of corrosion, there was no way that it would seal. The worst part is the guy I got it from paid $900 to put a new head gasget and a tune up but they never fixed the head and it had a milkshake right away, that's when he got discusted with it and sold it cheap, I already got some of my money back on parts, still have some left for sale too!.. :good

Well the head is warped .006 but it straigntened out when I clamped it down!. :good



No wonder it didn't seal, from the highest spot to the lowest was .040. This is .010 from the lowest, one more cut(.005) should do it!.. :good



Ok it's a done deal don't look bad at all, a few touch ups with the Du-More and it'll be ready to go!.. :good  But first I have to make a V-Drive plate for a guy!.. :rolleyes

Thanks again Wade!.. :good  :beer

:good Cool Art, I had it clamped the best I could but I had to do it on my small welding table because the big one is outside. The small one was too thin so thats where the warpage came from. Im looking at a new place big enough to get all my shit in one place "inside". Hope the Yard Dog purrs like a Kitten :D

Nahh, from the way the surface was way off I don't think you did it, I bet it was already warped but now that it's flat it should seal up good!.. :good

To answer both here, the tensioner is not spring loaded it works by oil pressure and it is just so long and not very long at that!. Now when you cut the head and if you have to deck the block now the head drops down and the chain is looser, it's the same thing as when you line bore a V8 and the crank moves up in the block, the timing chain will be loose and that's why they sell chains to componsate for this, don't know if the have those for the 22R though!.. :stupid But they do make shims for that, don't understand how that works yet but I'll probably find out soon enough though!.. :laugh

I guess that was what I was thinking, there are too many of those around not to have a fix for every combination of head and block. yes a couple thou. on one end adds slack to the chain, and the tensioner can only take up so much.sounds like you are "ahead" :D  of that.

It started as such a simple project :stupid

I used to know someone with this motor in his truck. It sure is a durable motor IMO. If he could have killed it, it would be dead.

P.S. Nice weld job!

Bottled brushed the cylinders and slapped it back together, cam ain't worth shit either but it's going back in anyhow, this should be interesting!.. :laugh
