Well this will be fun!
I noted an odd exhaust note from my glorious CFR exhaust. Thought something had come loose inside the exhaust. Removed, checked, and all good.
Checked valve adjustment. All good.
Checked compression. 150 PSI plus except for #3 at 100. Did the add some oil to cylinder with no change in compression.
Going to remove the exhaust tonight again and take off the valve train on that side and pressurize the cylinder to see if I can verify the which valve is leaking.
A couple of questions. Fist I bet no one has a known good 73 2.0 L head laying around that they would be willing to sell or loan? Just looking to minimize down time.
Next any suggestions on a place to turn the head around quickly? Not sure if it is just the exhaust valve but considering it has less than 5K on the new top end and it is holding 100 psi I am betting it is not seriously damaged.
While I am there, might as well replace the rings. so I will be needing a set of 96 mm rings.
