Hi All, I would like to know if there is a left and a right hand side head. I took mine off to get the valve seats done but did not mark them as LHS /RHS and was told by somebody along the way that there was a left and right hand side head and to make sure my head gaskets are orientated correctly so as not to block off a small water port and to also use some sort of thread sealant (perma- blue??) on some of the bolts. Is this all correct? cheers MS

The heads are the same, but the head gaskets have a front & rear.

Also do not put any thread sealant on the top 2 head bolts, the ones closest to the valley, otherwise you will crank the block where the threads are.

If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0
