i tried to zoom in a whole lot but no luck, you cant see much in the pics but no biggie, i have an idea of what you mean. And wow i've never seen an 03 even with a 100k but hey - at least you use for what its meant for = to be driven !!!

well i'll never know until the heads come off, but whats sux in my case is that im doing all of this on the street. Therefore i cant even pull the heads of to look at the valves since its snowing a whole lot here in NYC. Im waiting to strike a deal with a local shop for a 302 or 306 and only then if we realize its just valves, ill cancel the block swap n re-do the valves...

but is it possible that cyls 6 & 7 (in my case) would show only about 12psi on a compression test? while all the others are in the 170 range.
