ktm Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 ....0.020" out!!! That combined with a little bit of detonation resulted in the carnage shown in my earlier thread. I know that I did not run it hot, so the PO must have tried to run a fusion reactor at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 fast z Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Straightening is pretty simple to do, straighten it, and surface the top and bottom and your good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktm Posted November 9, 2007 Author Share Posted November 9, 2007 It's at a shop now being straightened, surfaced, and then rebuilt. I might as well rebuild the head since it's off the car. Edit: I should add that I also know that detonation played a role in the failure as well. It was the combination of a number of factors.
