Cylinder Head Specifications On GM 1.6L Engines
General Motors suggests the following specifications be observed when remanufacturing the cylinder head on 1.6L engines used in Pontiac LeMans automobiles.
Measure the cylinder head height from the deck surface to the rocker cover rail. The overall height should measure no less than 3.770 (95.7mm). GM does not recommend the reuse of heads that fall below this minimum specification.
The installed valve stem height should be measured using tool #J25289. The tool straddles the valve and stem height is measured from the tip of the valve stem to the tool. A minimum clearance of .015 is recommended. The valve tip should never extend beyond the gauge.
AERA machine shops have determined the actual installed valve stem height to be 1.500 for the intake and 1.625 for the exhaust valve when measured from the valve spring seat to the tip of the valve.
