Hi All,
Well, by now this is ancient history & probably by now lost on some old 914thread since it's been quite a while since I dropped the engine. At the time, there was a HARD knock accompanied by really low power. As in she wouldn't pull third gear- knocked HARD - but still got me home.
I expected a dropped valve seat & maybe even some piston damage.
From the looks of these heads - I was wrong all around.
Next step obiously is to split the case. I'm sittin' here basically dumbfounded.
What could the hard knock - coupled with could the low power - have come from if it's not associated with the heads?
I haven't even cleaned the heads yet - & they look pretty damn good.
Pistons look pretty good 2. Check out my picz & PLEASE give me a clue..
