Heat Shield Removal
My 30 Town Sedan came with a heat shield installed.
Yesterday, I noticed that my distributor housing was moving while activating my spark advance lever. Since the distributor set screw and lock nut are covered by the heat shield, I thought I would remove the shield permanently. I don't believe the heat shield is needed to begin with. My question is, since I will need to back off the two head bolts #3 and #6 to remove the shield, should I be concerned about disturbing the head and gasket? Also, after removing the shield, hopefully I will be able to remove the distributor to retorque the head. What is the best procedure for retorquing the head after disturbing the two head nuts? Thanks for any and all input. Tom L. |
