Re: stem seals

[Simon Favre <simon@domain.elided>]

OK, I actually called a knowledgeable parts person (a rarity) who says
that the O-ring style stem seal is used on all the small block Chevy
(SBC) motors, including the 350, but only before 1986. So, presumably,
if you asked for a set of 1980 Chevy 350 stem seals, you would have
enough to do 2 Alfa 4-cyl head gaskets, with a few spares to account
for clumsiness. ;=) Some parts places sell them by the piece, so you
could just buy 6.

File this one away! 1980 Chevy 350 valve stem seals make great Alfa
head gasket O-rings!!
