Sweet! Thanks for the input guys, we're gonna take a closer look at they cylinder walls today in the daylight, but I think for the moment we're gonna do a full timing belt job on it (water pump et all) and put together a new head...we have one machined and ready to go, just need to yank the springs and retainers off of the old head...the old valves look like junk, can they be cleaned up? Going to get new valve-stem seals and toss in a set of comp cams I picked up from swifty back in april, then we'll see if this thing moves again! Maybe we'll have it ready for the dyno day.....

I actually have high hopes that the new head will actually bring compression up to 130-ish across the cyls....
