SON OF A B*TCH!!! Damn Greddy valve springs. Oh Well, I will tear in apart over at ALLABOUTSPEED within the next 2 weeks. Hopefully I will not need a piston.

Im going to replace all the Valves, Springs, Head Gasket( Because Im losing coolant) , and maybe do some porting.

This sucks.:(

Not the first time Greddy valve springs have broken, heard of it once or twice from some FWD SR guys. I haven't heard of JWT's breaking, only cams, but not springs yet.

Thanks man.........I have to get the head off, then if the piston is ok, rebuild the head.

If the piston is f*cked, Im done for the year.
