tofferson Ok after constant blue smoke and a misfire, i' ve decided it was time to take a look in the engine and this is what I found so decided to replace big end bearings, all rings and rebuild my head 2 new valves and set of stem seals. head is now stripped and jet washed ready to begin grinding valves back in. I bought a spare bottom end with 72 thou on the clock but decided to use the original so its up for grabs if anyone's interested.
tofferson do you no what caused the valve , ive not removed block its still in car i slid pistons out from top , the block in pick is one i have for sale its a spare.
