Paydirt. I retorqued all the rockers and no luck, but it was sounding a little better. I took the heads off and checked out how the valves were seating. The number 6 intake is not completely seated. I think we found out culprit. The pistons are ok. I guess the heads came with that bent valve. I need to make a call and let this guy have a piece of my mind.

Has anyone here disassembled heads before. I would like gain some experience and save some money at the same time. I'll still take them to get planed...just in case, but if I can learn how to take apart and put together heads, that would be great!

Another Q...I shined a flashlight in the exhaust port and could barely see light around the exhaust valve on the number 5. Is this acceptable? Maybe I should just drop them off at a machine shop.
