Cylinder Head: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Pontiac Firebird and 2002 Chevrolet Camaro. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: Remove the spark plugs from the cylinder head with the components at room temperature. Mark, organize, or sort the cylinder head components for assembly. Return the components to their original location during assembly. DO NOT remove the cylinder head expansion plugs or valve seats unless service is required. A second design valve stem oil seal and shim assembly may be used on later engines. A separate spring shim is not required with the second design seal and shim assembly.
