doubt it. The combustion chamber looks like it could be polished out for the most part, but that lower right valve seat looks too screwed up to fix. The valve would have to be cut way too far up inside the port.

I saw this on ebay and was going to get it.
Now I'm not.

I'm building a turbo motor and was just searching for parts.

Thanks for the info.

p.s. My motor is still running stong.

Two weeks ago my first 3 runs were

1st 13.662
2nd 13.770
3rd 13.671

that looks beyond repair... and if it is repairable... it'd probably cost more than it's worth.

it'd probably make a good paper weight or book end though...
