    quick question

    Took the heads off drivers side cylinders in excellent condition. Passenger side has metal shavings everywhere. Time to sell off my good parts and save for an ls1 swap. I can complete the swap with $2k. Going with a5.3 for now

    quick question

    Managed to get it to run for about twenty seconds and it shut off. RPMs still rose up slowly and went down slowly as a revved up engine. everything on the intake is capped off so should I go on ahead and pull the head? Since its still acting like I have a vacuum leak?
