Hi,
I'm about to swap the heads of my 1981 305 for 80-86 HO 305 heads.
The main reason is that I can't stop the valve cover to stop dripping oil. The previous owner sanded the top of the head to clean it, and every year I need to change the gaskets once they start sitting well.
So I have found cheap 305 H.O heads with the springs and everything. I'm just not sure if it's a good idea. Will this influence the motor in any way?
I'm not investing performance in my 305; I want it to stop dripping.
If I switch motor, I will go for a full crank seal instead of those half moon seals before going for a performance engine.
Thanks,
John
