I have the head off and the pistons still look new as so does the rest of the engine. The head studs show no sign of stretch marks what so ever. The head never had more than 23 psi under it but ran 20-21 psi a lot. I havent dropped the drive train yet. I had to port the head some more because the intake runners were still to small (Im gready). It didnt match the 1g intake manifold. The exhaust manifold needed porting too. That took forever. My neighbors must love me.
Still looking for a job (most of my time has been looking). I should have the tansfer case and oil pan off tomorrow and order new rod bearings and gasket set. Clutch should be here tomorrow too.
Maybe this weekend I can have the tranny off and take it to Jerrys to get the diff welded. Who knows.
Later.
