Actually you can paint the head surface and lifter valley for better oil drainback (supposedly).

Yes. Do a search for "Glyptal". http://images.google.com/images?hl=e...ab=wi&biw=1170
Keep in mind that it's not regular paint.

I did not mean to imply that he should do it on that engine. Just that you can paint the inside of one in certain situations. And yes, it's old school

there is definitely paint in that head and you really want to use the plastic green discs for prepping gasket surfaces. i agree with polishing the lifter valley too.
