I got the car all back together last night and it its running good again. I replaced the two valves (thanks Cornfed) cleaned up a few small dings in the head and the top of the piston and put it back together with new gaskets.
while it was apart I took the oppertunity to coat my exhaust manifold with the extream high temp header coating I got from Ling ling. I had my buddy that did all my powder coating sandblast the manifold, paint it and cure it in his oven. it turned out so good it was a shame to cover it with the heat shield.
Now I just need to fix my coolent temp sensor pig tail that has a loose pin in it and get my drag radials mounted and I will be ready for proving grounds.
