302 with 351 firing order???? why?

[BayStYAt]

No, you use a razor blade and cut off the excess. Seat both pieces fully using screwdriver handle and cut them off @ 1/16" above flush (long). Then you rotate them in the groove, I think you want 1/4" sticking out on one side and 1/4" sticking in on the other so the break in the seal doesn't line up with the block to cap separation line. Should be a ton of stuff on Google describing it better.

thanks Ranch, the problem is the steel rod in the center.

Summit is sending a new seal. Felpro said the one I have is incorrect

[BayStYAt]

Nice!

Rear sump oil pan? 4x4?

Also note by the amount of corrosion on the head gasket surface that I bet this engine was in a saltwater boat.

Was it already in the truck like that? Maybe small blocks are different but an FE won’t go in a 2wd truck with a rear sump pan...

That's because the 5.0 engines don't have the boss for the clutch pivot point.

I would not run those headers. They are pretty much stock garbage parts and don't flow very well. You should be able to find a pair of used 1 5/8" BBK's for little to nothing. Then just grind the ball flange a little for clearance.

Ranch,

Thanks buddy. I am not looking for more HP. I got these for a cheap price. I am finishing them with POR15 Header paint. I wanted to get rid of the rusty manifolds.

Valve Adjustment?

I read you just run the nut down until tight? Is there a torque setting?

Is there no lash adjustment?

Thanks everyone

[Ranchero50]

If the studs have positive stop shoulders then yes, lock them down. If the rocker fulcrum will slide down over the shoulder then you need to adjust the lash.

I don't like the rotate the pushrod method because I've seen the lifter plunger lower while doing it. I shake the pushrod axially while tightening the nut. Once the pushrod doesn't move axially (inline with the shaft) then add 1/2-3/4 turn of preload on the lifter plunger.
