- What vehicle(s) do you drive?
- 1960 DeVille 390 4 barrel
Friend asked if I could rebuild his 1960 390 engine for his Series 62 DeVille .
I'm more familiar with Dodge and Chevy..... but I said yes.
Received engine in pieces with block and misc cleaned.
Took to machine shop and turns out heads are cracked from intake seat to spark plug hole..... one on each head.
Is this a common problem?
Are guys running them with crack's?
Does any shop's repair them?
Is there a stock replacement?
