Head gasket update...

Recommended Posts

Well the simple chore of swaping out a blown head gasket turned into a complete engine rebuild. Turns out there were two cracked pistons and four broken compression rings. All the parts are here now, just waiting on the good used pistons from a nice gent in Michigan who gave me a great a deal on what look like good pistons. The block and head are back from the machinist. The block was deglased and re cross-hatched for the new rings. The head recieved a complete valve job and resurface on all gasket surfaces. Should be up and running well soon. Keep you posted,
