Well I think I'm going to do some research make sure I have all the torque specs and give it a try. That is if it makes sense financially.
As long as I do my homework and make sure I get the machining done properly I think I'll be ok.
First things first I need and engine.
Whats the worst that could happen? Oh wait isn't that how I got in this situation in the first place? Wow. I am a sick man.

I guess I missed it? IS that a modded engine? Why the red head?

Could of been a few things.
1. I was using mid grad gas and didn't know that that could really damage my engine(guess we learn by doing.) :(
2. The engine was replaced like a year ago and I had a local guy put it together. (big mistake. Bill what was it like 12 missing bolts?) The guy was a jack ***.
3. One of the retainers wasn't properly secure.
What ever it was it was the same result the valve just popped off and bounced around in my cylinder destroying everything.
Bill am I missing anything?
