pulling 16 valve head 700

About the only thing I don't like about this engine, is the tendency to leak.

Be very careful on torques, especially on the cam carrier (top half of head), mine leaks there, after getting the head rebuilt, and it's driving me crazy.

I did replace my oil pump bolt, as a precaution, and did not replace the balance shaft belt. No problems yet, after 30K miles.

good luck,
jc
