Yes I would go along with the lower cylinder seals as a distinct posibility. When I fitted my recon heads ( given by the bloke I bought it from luckily enough) I managed to do it in the vehicle without the piston rings popping out of the cylinders and all the extra work that entails in spite of what the Haynes manual said. Think about it!
