Has it been a month already?
My heads are back from the shop.
The springs and retainers are new, hardened seats installed and the shop found that my intake valve seats had been ground to the wrong angle, leaving a poor valve sealing surface. Heads are back on and after a bit more parts cleaning & assy, it will be time for paint. At this point I am getting the old engine ready to come out, though I would rather be squirrel hunting:)
Also just returned from picking up a used but mint engine hoist. Winner.
