BlueBanshe03 Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 I want to get NOSS heads but i didnt know what kind of work is required to put them on. What exactly do i need to do when i put them on as in the range of work on the motor. Because my situation is im 16 years old and id be pretty much working on it with my clymer manual by myself and i didnt know if it would be too complicated for me. Thanks for the help!

Drain your radiator (see clymers), unplug all the hoses to the stock head, then unbolt it. Once its off you can see your pistons....in the instruction sheet it says to get a razor blade and cut the head gasket off, but I dident . Now put the domes on with the lines pointing forward (they fit in your head only one way). Then put the o-rings in there place with a little greese to hold them in place. Once the heads on torque the head in stock torqueing pattern (clymers). I think you should torque them in 4 different stages: 5ftlbs, 10ftlbs, 15ftlbs, and finaly 20ftlbs. It took me about 2 hours to install mine. Also, you might put the head together to make sure everything fits good before you install it. Your going to be happy with this thing, it cools and looks so much better than stock . some pics off meat's site Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fixitrod Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 It's not to tough. It's the easiest if you pull the front plastics and tank. Drain the coolant. Pull the hoses and take the head off. Put the new head on by following the instructions that come with the new head. You'll need a torque wrench, some screw drivers and some metric sockets. I do have a question though. How does a 16yr old afford to put a head on a banshee. I was saving for a car, insurance and paying for gas, girlfriend, and oh.. a kid.. lol.
