jbooker82 Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 No you dont use the stock head gasket. There should be O rings to seal it up. 1 O ring on each dome, Then a 2 o rings around the head where it seals against the cylinders, and 2 o rings down in the head shell to seal the shell to the top of the domes. Use some vasoline on the orings to hold them in place. That way they are not falling out. I would also take the fitting of the back of the head that hooks to the radiator hose. That way you can put the head on and not fight the rear radiator hose and trying to keep the o rings from falling out at the same time.

jbooker82 Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 I aslo just set each dome over the bore. Then slide the shell down on the domes. Sure beats trying to hold the domes in the head and trying to keep o rings from falling out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bansh-eman Posted December 25, 2008 Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 there are older sets of domes that used the two left over orings. They put those in there just incase thats the kind you have so there are no issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-oregon Posted December 25, 2008 Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 there are older sets of domes that used the two left over orings. They put those in there just incase thats the kind you have so there are no issues. I have two chariot cool heads and one of the o-rings fits in the back, carb side, of the head where the water hose connects to the head fitting. If you look back there you will see two allen screws, unscrew them, take the fitting off and put one of the o-rings on. You should only have one extra o-ring when done.

ClimbAnyHill Posted December 25, 2008 Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 And I would put the whole thing together & install the spark plugs as well. Hold the whole thing by the plugs and drop it in! Makes it way easier!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
