Hey Don!
Congrats again to your achievement. I had to do the same thing on my 82 380 sel. Unfortunately, I had to replace the head gaskets too. If I ever have to replace seals in another future project v8, I would just pull the heads. At least you know the head gaskets won't leak oil for another 100k. So after complete seals, head gaskets, valve adj, chain rails-guides, and h20 pump, the car purs... and gets an honest 21.5 mpg. Not bad for such a huge car and 126k. les
