8N head questions

FrankS · May 6, 2015

My 8N threw a fan belt and I didn't notice it until it overheated and started to miss. I've got water in the oil. Plan to have the head checked for flatness and magnafluxed. I've tried to get a Fel-Pro Permatorque gasket at NAPA but the gal told me they only listed the standard Fel-Pro re-torque version. Does anyone have a NAPA part number for the Permatorque? Or the Fel-Pro number? Also don't know whether to use the studs or bolts. Any opinions on which is better? I don'twant to do this job a second time. Thanks..

I don't have a # it has been posted a few times...

For the record you can re-torque any of them any time you want to... Set the wrench to the high end of recommended torque and re-torque (DO NOT LOOSEN THEM UP)

I prefer bolts myself...

Thanks Hobo. I've looked in the archives and the only # is the re-torque version 7277B. I've sent an e-mail to Federal Mogal and will post it if available.

Just watched the FelPro video. I also used a FelPro Permatorque head gasket and this would make a good sticky.

Do you have the FelPro Permatorque part number?
