Default Update

Heads were removed. Pistons/cylinders show no signs of being burnt or excessivley worn. Engine is going on a stand next Monday and pistons will be pulled to check the rings. That leaves valves out of time with the pistons. Since it was dynoed at 650hp you gotta think the cam somehow slipped way out of time. It never did idle very well, but we attributed that to the injection needing fine tuning.

I am getting this 3rd hand so I have questions also.
