so I spoke with the machine shop today and my deck hight is definitely uneven. I have a choice to


A. Even them up, and run a thicker head gasket. (My choice so far)

B. Even them up, and cut the pistons to run flush. (I don't want to do this)

C. Use a 3v block and start over. (Reason for this thread)

D. Find another Teksid.

E. Sell my car and parts and get some prostitutes. :)pepper:)

A. If thats the easiest way to get you where you need to be with no real drawbacks, then do it.

B. Pass on that

C. They definitely have thicker mains, their casting design is much stronger than the WAP blocks and as mentioned earlier, Al P. seems to prefer them over the teksids.

D. Look around, you can definitely be had for cheap. Got mine for $150.00

E. YOUR WIFE WOULD KILL YOU:dw:

How were the cross threaded holes repaired?
Don't know that I would trust head bolt holes that were cross threaded. Unless they put good inserts in them. Especially if boost is in the mix.

If you are comfortable with the repairs, I would go for the thicker gaskets.

At least get a blowjob from a hooker. As long as she doesn't have any mouth sores LOL.

I am probably using the wrong term. I was referring to the bore on the cylinder wall.


I think I will just go for a Oriental massage with happy ending....
