The ground strap at the rear of the right cylinder head should be removed.

The mating surfaces should be cleaned and checked for damage. The threads in the head bolt holes should be chased. The new gasket(s) should be positioned over the locating dowels. The head(s) should be carefully positioned on the block and the threads on all bolts should be lightly oiled. The recommended tightening sequence should be followed in two or three steps.

Measure from the top of each spring seat or shim(s) to the bottom of the retainer using a ruler graduated in 1/32-inch increments or a dial caliper.

The parts should be labeled or stored separately to ensure they can be reinstalled in their original locations and in the same valve guides they were removed from.

Inspect valve springs for wear, measure their free length, check for squareness, and replace sagged or distorted springs. Also, verify the condition of spring retainers (or rotators) and keepers.
