  1. If the wire broke all nuts have a CHANCE of coming undone. If you use cotter pins on each one, one does not depend on the other.
  2. Some are easy some resist depending on what is rusted. Pull the nuts off and squirt pb blaster/ wd 40 around the studs. GENTLY start working around the edges. Aluminum heads are much tougher.
  3. Why take the chance? Do it right the first time.
  4. The engine was rebuilt and it had 7 bent rods in it. Drives like a champ after replacing one complete valve guide that came loose after rebuild. When resting it sits in Old retired Ford dealership that has had the front display area rebuilt like it was in the 30s. Thanks for asking.
  5. I don't know if it is intake or exhaust that cracked but I have many for sale Doug Johnson #23
