[QUOTE="Stitch, post: 3385421, member: 4872"] I had a plug blow on mine about a year ago. Put a Timesert in it. I think the plug being blown out caused a valve seal to be damaged as I have oil burn on decel. I'm planning to eventually rebuild the engine. You could easily pick up a set of 03/04 heads or even 01 heads (saw a guy posting brand new 01 heads for <$500). Then buy yourself a set of factory 03/04 Rods/Pistons for a reasonable price. ($750 maybe, not sure) If you tear it down, replace the oil pump and oil pump gears with a set from VT. The only thing left after that is labor and misc. parts. Popping spark plugs seems to be a common problem even on 03 cars until they added more threads in 04. [/QUOTE]
