Stella's head is toast. She has cracks in three out of four cylinders. Two have cracks in the space between the valves and in the area near the spark one has cracks in both areas .........sigh
So is there a better year than the 87 for 740 turbo heads? Pick-a-part has heads for $50 plus tax and core.
I am still stuck with that bolt in the block, i may turn to professional help, dunno yet.
I am going to have the heads cut off of a couple of head bolts for guides, don't want a hard landing and sure don't want to scuff the head gasket.
Any input is sorely needed and greatly appreciated
So I am going to focus on the problem(s) with the 92 240 for now, maybe that will take me to a happy place
I have next week off nice to know won't be bored.
