Few beers on the job made this friday fly.

Yeah I'm pretty sure that the headgasket is faulty.

Also, I'm starting to be pretty happy because it seems that this engine is nothing but stock! Pistons have combustion chamber in them so the CR is lower than stock. I would be very interested knowing what pistons these actually are, they don't look like machined stock pistons because in middle they have these "marks" that I assume are cast marks.

Head is tuned also. Intake ports are clearly ported and cam isn't stock either because it seems like it has as much lift than my old head from daily driver Sierra had which is Pipercams 134. Cam profile is a bit different but I guess it is somewhere with similar spec to the Pipercam / Burton 134 cams.

Painted valve cover and intake manifold black.

Tomorrow in plans is to get everything installed again.
