Re: Over revving issue

I'm not going to re-hone/re-ring the motor. I don't see the point in that.

Update on everything so far:

- Got the head off. Everything on the head appears to be pretty good. Nothing jumped out as being obviouslly bad. My uncle owns an engine/machine shop in Minneapolis, where I will be bringing it for him to check out.

- Headgasket is blown in 3 spots. To all those telling me I was wasting my time removing the head, this is why the head was removed. I suspected head gasket issues for the past few months.

- I mentioned earlier that from under the car the pass axle looked goofy. Well today I got the wheel off and yeah that pass side axle is fubar'd. I didn't look at that close as today I was focusing on the head, not the tranny. Tomorrow I should get a better look at it though. All I can say right now is that I'm definately going to need a new pass side axle.

That's it for now. I'll post up pics once I get them uploaded.
