I am rep\lacing the head gaskets on my K5. I overheated it and ran it hot.
The left manifold bolts were rounded and would not come loose. So I had to break the manifold to get the head off. I see that Dorman makes a new one, not sure if you guys have used them? I also put the top back on, has not been on for 7 yrs.
