Looking closer, doing more thinking, and having more experienced eyes look at the head, pretty sure something got into the cylinders and whacked the snot out of the combustion chambers and piston tops. Pretty sure I'll be able to save the heads, not so sure about the pistons, and think a good hone job will clean up the cylinders. I'll learn more when I take everything to the machine shop later this week. Oh well, will take the opportunity to put in a nice hydraulic roller cam. I've had a new set of roller lifters sitting on the shelf for years and now I'll use them. I've been thinking I need a little more power. Would sure be nice to join Jack "Hotfingers" in the 9 second club.
