Re: Gutted
If I ever get an FTO for myself, it's getting a certain inline 4 dropped straight into it.
I hate FWD v6's.
Good luck sweep, hope it all works out for you.

Re: Gutted
Got a update today we had a guy come out and pulled the head off of the engine and it looks like I got lucky their is a slight indentation in the head which he said is nothing to worry about and the piston is perfect.
Lucky that is was a spring washer which fell in their so it collapsed easily.
Im taking the head to a place tomorrow to check the valves for me but the look fine, just gotta get a VRS topend kit now as all of the gaskets have seen better days.

Re: Gutted
Carnt wait to get it back on the road
The guy who is checking the valves mentioned that their is a slight chance I may of closed the gap of the piston on the ring because the washer caught the side of the piston.
But I wont no for sure until I put it back together and see how it goes.
