Well, somehow I dropped a valve swapping out springs this weekend. The head have to come off, I might as well do a light rebuild and go from there.
Light rebuild as in, VVL metal headgasket, my Golden Eagle head studs, and Lapping both block/head.
or step it up alittle and get Rob's ported head, Forged Pistons, ACL race bearings, VVl Oil pump, G spec Crank Pulley (don't need a WP pulley since I'm not running one.)
i dunno, it's in the air right now. I was trying to get the car running within the next 2 months but you know how that goes.
edit: talked to some techs at work. I'm a moron and I can get the valve back up without taking the head off. but I might get the VVl oil pump and pulley for the hell of it.
