Your car will look showroom new after this....
Yep Engine still salvagable!
There is only 98k on the OD still....and it ran pissa up to the intake failure...
I feel the head went due to the slight overheating issues i had with the coolant disappearing...
I know....car will be as good as new huh!

So I guess this means that you'll have to have your head shaved?
...your 3800'* head, not yours
edit: with the heads shaved, your compression ratio will be bumped up by a little bit. Might mean more power, albeit, you'll potentially have to do it on premium gas.

The front head is fine...but i want that gasket done seeing that 3/4 will be apart...
