[QUOTE="N/Angel, post: 16649797, member: 41688"] well, what can I say, engine is out and taken apart and all we found was an almond in the driver side head. Obviously not the reason for the claimed engine damage as it was probably dropped sometime during the long time the car was sitting with no spark plugs. Otherwise the heads look good, cams look good, pistons all are okay, cylinder walls look very good. Previous owner said car would not run on all cylinders and had low compression on cylinder 7 and 8. We can't find anything confirming this issue. So I will be ordering all new gaskets, spark plugs and a few other misc things and then it goes back together and hopefully starts up without issues. Maybe I got lucky and the engine is ok after all. Some pics attached. What do you think?
