a good idea is to get your crank polished...

I finally got around to doing the compression test with the engine hot.

Cylinder 1: 425 PSI
Cylinder 2: 200 PSI
Cylinder 3: 425 PSI
Cylinder 4: 425 PSI

So no real difference but I think I will hold off on the lower end rebuild for a couple years. I have ordered ARP studs and will get a metal HG as well as have the head checked for flatness and pressure tested for cracks. Car runs fine but tends to blow coolant out the overflow tank if temps get too high.

After the new HG I will get the injectors cleaned and adjusted and crank up the boost a bit for safe highway passing purposes

:wink: .
