Cylinder Blocks
The minimum height for a 3406 Engine block is 425.02 mm (16.733"). The minimum height for 3408 and 3412 Engine blocks is 418.67 mm (16.483"). These dimensions are measured from the centerline of the crankshaft bore to the mating surface for the cylinder head as shown in Illustration 1. The 6V7840 Block Deck Height Measurement Group can be used to measure these dimensions. Special Instruction, SEHS8187, has information about the use of this group.
The flatness across the whole contact surface of the block must be within 0.10 mm (.004") and within 0.05 mm (.002") for any 177 mm (7.0") section of the surface. The surface finish specification is 3.2 micrometers (125 microinches) maximum.

The minimum thickness for the cylinder heads used on 3406, 3408 and 3412 Engines is 111.51 mm (4.390"). This dimension is measured from the top of the head to its mating surface as shown in Illustration 2.
The flatness across the whole cylinder head mating surface must be within 0.13 mm (.005"), within 0.025 mm (.001") for any 76.2 mm (3.00") section and within 0.013 mm (.0005") for any 6.35 mm (.250") section. The surface finish specification is 3.2 micrometers (125 microinches) maximum. For more information on the amount of erosion permitted, see "Guideline For Reusable Parts And Salvage Operations-3208 And 3400 Cylinder Heads," Form SEBF8055.
Up to 0.38 mm (.015") of material can be machined from the top of the adapter seat to remove fretting. See Illustration 2. A minimum dimension of 16.89 mm (.665") between the top of the adapter seat and the bottom of the head is necessary after the seat has been machined. After the adapter seat has been machined, the 1.5 0.5 mm × 45° (.06 .02" × 45°) chamfer at the top and bottom of the adapter threads must be machined again.
Always check for a minimum dimension of 16.89 mm (.665") between the adapter seat and the bottom of the cylinder head any time the head is machined.
Illustration 2. Cylinder head nomenclature.Valves And Valve Seat Inserts
After the head has been machined, the projection of the valves must be checked with a depth gauge. The valve projection must not be more than 0.20 mm (.008"). See Illustration 3. The valves can also be recessed. See Illustration 4. The amount that the valves can be recessed depends on the thickness of the cylinder head after it has been machined. Use the information which follows to find the maximum amount the valves can be recessed.
Example: Cylinder head thickness after it has been machined to 112.52 mm (4.430")Step 1. 113.03 mm (4.450") - 112.52 mm (4.430") 0.51 mm (0.020")Step 2. 1.22 mm (.048") - 0.51 mm (.020") 0.71 mm (.028") maximum amount the valves can be recessed in this example.
It is recommended that the projection or recess be as close to flush as possible (even with the surface of the head).
