Hello Alfisti,
I recently installed a rebuilt SPICA with a 10.5mm intake cam. The car always burned some oil, but it seems much worse now. I'm assuming the higher lift? Anyway, I was thinking to pull the head this winter, replace all valves (engine is original). My question is this, what else needs to be replaced while I'm there? Valve guides or seals, piston rings? I understand that the rings can be replaced without pulling the block.
Looking for advice and perhaps pictures or step by steps.
Thanks all.
