Andy,
>3/ I have eight n.o.s. valve springs for 1592 alpine
> - are they the same as 1725 cc engine ??
Yes, there was a design change toward the end of the 1725 production that was
a different spring set, but I think this was a cost reduction, bottom line is
to set your
spring tensions with shims at a reputable head rebuilder and you could use
either.
>4/ can I briefly test engine with no propshaft attached, as long as the
> box & Odrive are full of fluid ??
Sure, but even if the trans is in neutral, the output shaft will spin, which
might spew
some oil out the open rear.
