Fig 19: Installing No. 1 & No. 6 Piston & Connecting Rod Assemblies Using Special Tools (303-442) & (303-D032)
NOTE:
The rod cap installation must keep the same orientation as marked during disassembly or damage to the engine may occur.
NOTE:
Rotate the crankshaft after each connecting rod is installed and tightened, to check for assembly binding.
NOTE:
Install a new O-ring seal on the oil pump screen and pickup tube.
NOTE:
The gasket sealing surfaces on the cylinder head and the cylinder block must be clean. Failure to follow these instructions may result in engine damage. For additional information, refer to Cylinder Head .
NOTE:
The use of sealing aids (aviation cement, copper spray and glue) is not permitted. The gasket must be installed dry. Failure to follow these instructions may result in engine damage.
NOTE:
The new gasket has a film coating which is crucial to the gasket's ability to seal correctly. Do not scratch the gasket.
NOTE:
RH head gasket shown, LH head gasket similar.
NOTE:
Cylinder head machining or milling is not authorized by the Ford Motor Company. Cylinder head flatness must be within 0.0254 mm (0.001 in) across a 38.1 mm (1.5 in) square area. Failure to follow these instructions may result in engine damage.
NOTE:
The gasket sealing surfaces on the cylinder head and the cylinder block must be clean. Do not use metal scrapers, wire brushes, power abrasive discs or other abrasive means to clean the sealing surfaces. These tools cause scratches and gouges which make leak paths. Use a plastic scraping tool to remove all traces of old sealant.
NOTE:
The use of sealing aids (aviation cement, copper spray and glue) is not permitted. The gasket must be installed dry. Failure to follow these instructions may result in engine damage.
NOTE:
Do not allow the dowels to scratch the sealing surface of the cylinder head during cylinder head installation. Failure to follow these instructions may result in engine damage.

NOTE:
If the engine front cover is not secured within 4 minutes, the sealant must be removed and the sealing area cleaned with metal surface cleaner. Allow to dry until there is no sign of wetness or 4 minutes, whichever is longer. Failure to follow this procedure can result in future oil leakage.
NOTE:
If not secured within 4 minutes, the sealant must be removed and the sealing area cleaned. To clean the sealing area, use silicone gasket remover and metal surface prep. Follow the directions on the packaging. Failure to follow this procedure can cause future oil leakage.
NOTE:
If the valve covers are not secured within 4 minutes, the sealant must be removed and the sealing area cleaned with metal surface cleaner. Allow to dry until there is no sign of wetness or 4 minutes, whichever is longer. Failure to follow this procedure can cause future oil leakage.
