Andy FitzGibbon Posted September 23, 2007 Author Share Posted September 23, 2007 All torn down. Heads were definitely not machined and, while not warped, definitely could use it. Found several mismatched/missing/loose bolts (like a cam case bolt used to hold the intake on...) so I'm glad it blew again. So far it looks like smooth sailing. Except that I want to get it done by Thursday and my "gasket set" didn't include cam carrier or cam case o-rings:mad: Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
