motor assembly in general...
Hey guys...I have a few basic 4-cyl motor assembly questions.
1) Cleaning the head---is it ok to clean the head using Varsol and cleaning the valve seals using the same product?
2) when assembling a head with the valvetrain, what do I need to lubricate and grease up?
Thanks
bart

Lots Of It!
Also using varsol will not hurt the head, although i would be hesitant to get it around the seals...

Well I know I need assembly lube for the valvetrain...but what specifically?
disregarding the camshafts because I know how to prepare them but what abotu the valves/springs/retainers/etc... what do I grease/lube up within that selection?

You may want to throw some oil inbetween the seat and the head to insure a good "oil seal" yet other than that, Just check the installed height, rocker arm to retainer clearance. Seal to guide clearance etc..
