[QUOTE="MWorld, post: 8445, member: 1071"] Thanks for input guys. When we took the grill off the top to get to the radiator it was quite evendent that the bolts hadn't been removed in quite a long time. Guess the guy I got the machine from only checked the bottle on the bottom and never took the cap off the radiator to check the coolant level. Grainfarmer.com dropped the ball and now can't ship the head so I'm getting the head and gaskets from Engine Distibutors in Blackwood, NJ. Bare head....$814.50 Head Gasket set....$123.70 You're right about there being a lot of junk up inside fan area. The oil cooler is loaded. Am sure that contributed much to the problems. Everything seems to be coated with oil back there, possibly the rear seal is leaking. As far as labor intensity goes, I'd rather change these heads all day than a 4.6L Lincoln. Read someplace on this forum the valve clearances, but now can't find, would someone happen to know? [/QUOTE]
