69 toronado head questions...
So I've herd the old's 455 heads are really bad about oil return and wondering if that's for the other 455's or is the Toronado included in this? I know the 455 in the Toro is supposed to be the same as the 442's I'm just trying to see how close of an eye I should keep on my tachometer. As well I'm getting hardened Valves and would like to know the valve sizes...I'm redoing all the valve train just because I feel like it... Want it to run like it's brand new.. so any tid bits you know that are suggested for the heads please chime in... I will also be de burring the heads when I do the valves... Thanks guys love the support!

If you're going to all that trouble you may as well polish and port the heads.

bad oiling is not a toronado issue..all oldsmobile 455 suffer from that
