I was blowing smoke with no milky oil and everything pointing to a head gasket.When I got to the shop I poured some water into all the valves and
low and behold one exhaust valve was leaking...its hard to tell on these new
gaskets but the compression test confirmed bad 2-3 cylinder compression and the leak down test was fine.
I snapped a few shots of milling the block and a video of seating the valve springs and retainer pins. **I have a buddy who lends me his shop if I help
with a few heads while im there..**EVEN TRADE**
The first picture I found that the cylinder on the left had been repaired at some point. I did a 3 angle cut and seated the valves back in. compression checked out fine except for the one exhaust valve.
