I'm not in a BIG hurry to install it. I want to have the old engine out for awhile to do some major spit-shining of sub-frame, inner fenders, core support, and firewall. Pro'ly try to do something with the underside of the hood while it's off, too. I think I'll be ready to pull the old 289 in the next week or so.
Got the threads chased and the heads on and torqued today after a couple of hours of honey-do's.
Anyone want to offer advice as to whether or not to soak the lifters b/4 installation? I've read that both ways are recommended.
