Hey I am pulling my cy. head right now and im gonna have to leave it off the block overnight, how should i sit/lay it so that it doesnt warp?

thanks

 

on top of a block of wood, exhaust side down is the way i was always taught.

 

you shouldn't have to many problems if its a climate controlled area and temp doesn't fluctuate too much. Putting it on a piece of wood is a good idea, although exhaust side down really isn't neccesary.

 

I had one sitting for over a year upright sitting on the cam gear, sold it and the guy installed it right away and was prefectly non-warped

 

on a large piece of glass. block side down. glass is flat. also the best way to tell if a head is warped. better than a straight edge.

uh how is that better than a straight edge? glass can bend you know.

 

that sumbitch wont warp just by sittin on a regular table or floor unless for some reason the temperature gets above 500 degrees F.

 

yeah if its like 500 degrees out

 

oh ok, yeah it cold here lol like 20F

 

take it inside and put it under your pillow while you sleep.

 

just dont put the valves flat on a table use 2 peices of wood on each end of the head and put it on a table with the valves down do they are not on the table

it will be fine

 

overnite won't do **** to it.... as long as you don't toss it around or put heave **** on it. lol people thses days.

 

who has a piece of glass that big?

 

I just leave heads on the block. But then again its never under 40 degrees here
