natallica Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 Well, my red car lost the belt the other night, and the car overheated. Unbeknownst to me until I was almost home, the coolant was boiling when I got there. Figuring the head gasket was shot now, I had her towed to the in-laws garage and I proceeded to tear her down over the weekend.... here's what I found. Keep a barf bag handy when you see the cam (not sure what caused that either) http://i1234.photobucket.com/albums/ff408/n8tallica1/DSC03403_zps283ee591.jpghttp://i1234.photobucket.com/albums/ff408/n8tallica1/DSC03404_zps2b187413.jpghttp://i1234.photobucket.com/albums/ff408/n8tallica1/DSC03406_zps3b174e2d.jpghttp://i1234.photobucket.com/albums/ff408/n8tallica1/DSC03410_zps8e946089.jpg I'm contemplating whether or not to go with one of Dad's bare M28 heads, and re-using valves/cam/lifters (from my Fiji... cracked head, but not the one pictured) or a complete Odessa set-up from eBay. This car has a stock 12A, a few hardpipes, and BSEK, JVEK. Nothing special, mostly stock. What is my most reliable, but least expensive option? Thanks in advance fellas. -N8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotoCam360 Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 I have been trouble free on my banana car since DAD dropped a new non-jet valve casting last year.... I've probably put a total of 6-8k on the car since then tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
