Looks like every valve is bent......at least on the exhaust side so far....

Assuming all the guides are tweaked too

Who said they didn't have the "Block Sunroof" option in 05? It was just added a little after it left the showroom!

LOL I've got a good block here (2.0). And everything for a built bottom end AND balance shaft delete. Drop me a PM.

I have seen the same in a friends car, it just isnt something to look at and know that car is out of commission. Keep us posted on the progress of bringing it back to life.

UPDATE

I pulled the engine and tore it down yesterday......the head is trash unfortunately

HTA FP Green.....















While pushing the transfer case aside, im getting hit with small parts of engine block. Im like WTF, why are parts all the way back here......answer lies ahead...













Found the timing belt like this....



So the head comes off, I'm missing a piston...



Taking a look down into the cylinder



The head is junk It was a slowboy stage 3 port







Got the oil pan off, found the piston



Cams look fine, they are for sale if anyones interested...PM me (Kelford 272's)



Now just waiting on the new engine to show up (hopefully this week) so I can get to work on putting humpty dumpty back together....
