Olympic Mathlete posted:That seems......... sub-optimal. Any idea what happened? Kinda goes like this.... The motor has always had "lifter" noise. I just figured I shouldnt have just slapped the heads on without checking the clearances besides yeah, its not huge. I also need to fit a brass button clutch anyway. I had just got the car running with Drive by wire on te new ECU and was doing throttle testing as the car warmed up. Running at 3000 RPM. Did facebook video and 10 seconds later.. Screech rrrrrr stop. Hmm... did i just drop a timing belt or fan belt? NOPE!. Restart car.... Clatterclatterclatterclatter. Spounds like big end! Pull off intake in case it was the belt (easy to see spagetti...) and THERE IS YA PROBLEM! It appears the parts motor already had a valve issue ( it had a spun bearing on no 1, this was no4 cylinder). Whataya do..... You remove the motor in an hour! It managed to put trash into the OTHER cylinder on that side but fortunately the bore is fine. Ive located another donor motor for the heads and should collect it today. Ill also raid a Piston. Stay tuned, I aint heard no fat lady....
