Hmm. I'd definitely appreciate any info you can send because I think I'm going to do it. I found a head that the guy is selling with cam and recently machined valves so if I get that a lot of work that I'd have needed to do (or have a machine shop do) will be done.

For that matter, while the engine's apart, I'll likely replace rings and bearings. The RMS probably needs to go as well, because it's 220k miles old, and that can't be good.

While we're there...who knows when the motor mounts were replaced. And the transmission mounts, for that matter.

Anyway--thanks ahead of time for any info you send. vinniethefro at gmail dot com, if you please.
