yeah just did that, thanks bud!

So I couldn't pull the head today, gotta wait in line.

Instead found something else to do in the mean time, took a grinder and started to on getting some rust of the old stuff and gunk. Put a new coat on the old parts to make it look nice. This one was the first one I did, it came out looking nice! :).

Very nice. What kind of paint are you using?

it might be a little expensive but ive used it before on car's and it lasts a long time. i'm planning on using some gloss to protect the paint from dirt n so on.

tho if you saw the previous picture, youd be stunned it turned out this good. i know i am, looks brand new. if i took my time on detailing it like a pro, would have came out looking brand new.

initially i just wanted to get rid of some of the old paint n some small amounts of rust. grinded it down as much as possible.

Pulled the head of today, looks like it was because of the Injector... ;(.

Here is the picture of the liner

I can see liner fretting just from the pics of the head. Have that block cut and shimed. Also you need a new head. That one is toast.

those are also some pretty crappy after-market liners too.

half-arssed repairs lead to half-arssed results.

Do you think the block was cut and shimed from the last overhaul that was done 60k ago?

what makes you say the head is toast?
