Expecting the rest of the engine parts for that 22-36 to show up soon, so getting the rest tore down and not quite sure the best option on a couple items:
I thought I was going to have the block "boiled out" but may not take it in to the machine shop. In this case, am I just wasting my time to pull the head studs or is not doing so a leak or faulty torqe waiting to happen? Of couse it would be easier to clean if I do take them out; also, I don't see any I'd question, but may catch something I don't see now.
If I do get it boiled are there any surfaces I should give special attention to on re-assembly [cam-shaft comes to mind for one; any special lubrication? Any specs that would throw a red flag on the fit or the lobes? It will see less hours yearly than I originally thought but still will certainly be threshing and plowing rather than just parades].
Does anyone know the torque values and order? I'm guessing around 90ftlb taken in 4 iterations from inside to outside should be fine, but only a wild guess. I have the single layer head gasket rather than the metal sandwiched style. Figure I'll copper coat both sides, back off the last 10lb and bring it back up a day latter; and a final check after getting it to temp.
The machine shop took .015 to bring the head flat. In retrospect perhaps I should have told them not to mill it, but I think these had plenty of room for the sleeves? Any concern there? They took .010 off the manifold side too; #1 on the manifold itself looks rather pitted, but worried about clearance to the block if I have that milled - I don't relish the idea of removing material from that manifold anyway, they're getting a bit hard to find: I'm thinking copper coat paste there - is that going to hold up?
Thanks! I'll have to post some more pictures soon, but still have to sort through them.

Today's Featured Article - Box Plow Blues - by Tom Schwarz. One of the first implements most tractor owners obtain is the box plow. For very little money, this piece of equipment promises to plow and flatten any hill or vale on your ranch road or farm. At least that's what I thought! As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U
