And my 351 debacle continues...
I am in the process of doing the Explorer serpentine conversion to a 351 I recently installed.
According to the tech article on the swap, it's rare to come across a set of heads with the incorrect bolt holes in them. Well, I've managed to do so.
The passenger side head has the correct one large two small hole layout, but the driver side head has three 3/8" holes instead of the required 7/16"
Am I better off trying to drill out and re-tap or finding conversion bolts with a 7/16" shank and 3/8" threads?
