Its been snowing here which is something we arent used too. Got the heads off to start looking at valves. Only one valve was bent, thank goodness. However it seems that one spot on the other head is kinda off. I had an issue when I installed the heads. The guy who sold me the cam said i would be fine installing it 4 degrees advanced. Well this lead to me bending a few valves due to pvc issues. Not much of an issue you'll see by the pics. Pics of new shortblock are also included. Its a '91 shortblock, all bearings look good, piston bores are in good shape, and they do have the forged pistons.<img src="http://i812.photobucket.com/albums/zz47/BlakonBlak94/IMG_0003.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Yepp thats a cracked piston.<img src="http://i812.photobucket.com/albums/zz47/BlakonBlak94/IMG_0006.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Not an optical illusion. Ha<img src="http://i812.photobucket.com/albums/zz47/BlakonBlak94/IMG_0009.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Here you can see the small spot that was previously messed up(The right one). Seems to cover the sparkplug up some. I suppose its ok?<img src="http://i812.photobucket.com/albums/zz47/BlakonBlak94/IMG_0010.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />'91 Shortblock<img src="http://i812.photobucket.com/albums/zz47/BlakonBlak94/IMG_0012.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />TRW forged slugs. Pretty happy about that<img src="http://i812.photobucket.com/albums/zz47/BlakonBlak94/IMG_0011.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />And of course gotta thank the GF for keeping me company. She's being alot more supportive than I would have thought.</blockquote>
