so whats the latest?

 

[Crash_Nemesis]

Parts are still on their way from USA. Should have em sometime next week I hope, depending on customs and the delivery guys. Then, they drop the parts in.

The head has been looked at and its not as bad as we thought, although one of the Valve seats needs replacing.

Cylinder 6, where the damage took place, is still perfect. Luckily no damage in there. They guys were sure they could fix the CP piston in Cylinder 6 but I decided to just replace it. The HPF Rods are all good, as well as the rest of the bottom end.

As soon as the parts arrive, we'll start repairing Jezzi's head.

So the new CP piston and Forged Valves have arrived.

We've dropped them off with Lee at Gtech. Let the rebuild begin.

Hi Crash

Any plans 4the head? Are u gonna gas flow and do new valve springs, valves?

 

[Crash_Nemesis]

Yup. We had to gas flow the head due to the damage done to the one exhaust exit. The new Valves are now VAC Stainless Steal Forged Valves with Hardened Valve Locks/ Keepers.
