Well the heads are off and at the machine shop having the valves and seats ground. They're not horrible, but bad enough to cost me compression apparently. The picture is the #2 exhaust valve which looks to be the worst of the lot. I'm guessing that one was open when dad parked the car and let it sit. No wonder it wouldn't get a good seal, eh? Gaskets, new intake and Weber ICT 34 are due here tomorrow, so she should be back up and running by the weekend.
Cheers,
Trogdor
