Author Topic: Anything I should do before taking my heads off? 87coupe510 ¯ Member # 6150 posted                              I am doing the head gaskets on my 92 5.0. I'm going to also get the heads all cleaned up and clipped. I just wanted to know if theres anything I had to do before unbolting them? Like turning the motor to top dead center or anythinglike that. Anything you guys can help me with will be greatly appriciated.
