Nope but my head is off and turn's out I detonated number 4 heheh blew the fire ring apart don't worry I have pic's.

I am debating about a re freshing the bottom end, basicly ball hone, re ring and what not

Funny my first blown 22r head gasket was a failed fire ring on #4 too. It blew right to a coolant port so I had just a few too many psi into the cooling system.

 

Nice

Went to weld my head today and I got a bad bottle of gas god damnit

 

Bad bottle of gas or too much beer? ha ha for me it would be too much beer lol.

 

I just hope the hell it's not my machine

 

It was a Bad bottle they gave me it was misslabled and I bet is was co2 argone mix but all is well and head is welded and is at the muchine shop.

I did finf out some thing neat tho 1% lanthanated can go to 230 amp on 1/8th tungsten and holes the ark well I usely run 100% tungsten for aluminum but it can only go to about 175 max befor it just turns into a massive bawling ball on the end of your electrode

 

What valve springs are you gonna run?

 

lce pro springs good for 5500 to 6000 rpm
