thanks guys: 1952 A blew a head gasket and I appreciate your input. took me about 4 hours and had the head settin on the bench ready to go to the machine shop. Gonna check it for true and have em look at the valves while I got it off. The manifold was no problem in fact I was surprised at how easy the come loose. I soaked everything with p-b blaster for a couple of days before I started, thot it couldn't hurt but everything went well. IAM AMAZED OF THE QUALITY OF STEEL THAT THEY USED BACK THEN.THATS GOOD STUFF! any way just wanted to get back with you and let you know how things were going. ordered the gasket set sunday from this sight, just waitn on it. and again any and all input will be appreciated. any look out fors and or watch out for this will be gooooood. all I have to do is put it back together again. I also ordered a manual. it should have the tightening sequence on the head if not i'll be back. thanks again, you'all have a blessed day
