Well, dealer confirmed what I had suspected, exhaust value in #2 stuck open. I'm going to pull the valve cover to be 100% certain over the weekend.
So I've read all the bench wrenching discussions, but now I need some thoughts from someone who has installed a set of replacement heads.
and information from anyone who has purchased replacement heads and/or had heads machined by a local performance shop (i.e with new guides installed, etc.).
Any help online or offline would be great. I've been around bmw, porsche, etc. but the v8 is new ground for me and though I am confident I can easily swap the heads, I would like to get some first hand experience and insight into tricks/etc.
Thanks,
John
