pretty severe, huh! there was nothing loose or out of place when i first popped the covers. i believe that damage was there before i even got the car. I know that didn't happen since i've been driving it. everything has been done except rebuild and springs. new lifters, new rockers for #7 cyl, 3 adjustments, compression check, pushrods checked (not bent or worn), oil pressure's good, replaced exhaust gaskets. Would it be worth me replacing my springs at this point or should i have the heads rebuilt first?I can't do the heads until 2nd week of May, because of school, but the springs i can do over the weekend. or would it be worth it to take it to the guy who built the motor to find the problem or problems for $130 bucks.i'm pretty much down to this unless someone has a better thought on the situation?

It probably sounded like a 2000 lb fish flopping around when that damage happened.That was funny Chevyguy!

Thanks Joe for posting those pics for me.

And thanks for the support from all of you on this, it's much appreciated,
thad
