Learning lessons sucks.

The intake valves were bent sideways

The exhaust valves came unseated and are stuck open

These pics were taked before the head and/block had a once over so its pretty dirty

The cylinder heads came pretty clean and the deposits were cleaned up pretty well w/ the cloth and dont look as bad now. But cyl 1 has 2 small scratches on the cyl head and im worried i did it by accident

The head is at the shop and im waiting on the valves to come in , will be pickin up valve seals tom.

Cylinder walls are in pretty good condition

Default Did a TB job and fouled it up by going too fast and not realizing that my engine never came w/ a

secondary roller, the idiot that did the TB before me never put it back in, but i didnt catch it, so how smart does that make me? hmmmmm

So the TB was rubbing up against the damper the whole time and i installed it that way again! , this time there wasnt enough tension and the belt advanced timing and bent the valves.
