Hi Ian, I don't have a manual in front of me for the V700 but I believe it's the same as an ambassador for o-rings. Total 6 per cylinder. Between the cylinder and crankcase one each over the short studs. There will be a chamfer under those 2 stud holes on the bottom of the cyl. to confirm. If you're not that deep, then the other 4 rings go between the top of the head and the iron rocker housing. Again there will be a chamfer on the top of the head in those 4 holes to confirm this. They do NOT go between head and cylinder.

Hi All,

I was wondering if someone could confirm the location of the o rings?

I believe that they go between the cylinders and the heads. Are there 4
needed for under the rocker assembly too?

Also.....I don't have a V 700 parts manual with me......are there o rings
needed for the V700 heads?

I have one of the "A" series Ambassadors (1969) and I believe that it has
the 700 heads (only one spring per valve). My only experience is with the 70
Ambo I restored.

I would appreciate some input.

Regards....Ian
