you can clearly see the difference in springs when you are looking for it...
I am in no way trying to bash afr or any person, not at all....
I am posting because you guys gotta look closer i guess at bolt on ready heads because although everyone's telling me i am the issue and there are tons of afr and other brands with no issues out there, it can happen is all i am saying, sorry guys pics don't lie, gauges don't lie... I got the one and only set or sets if issues, could have been a bad day for me i don't know but clearly i am saying check heads before bolting on simple as that.... Lesson learned .... The hard way... That's normal for
me.

Learned there was a miscommunication of what actual lifter to bore clearance is acceptable... .0012-.0015 is NOT, especially with 60 degree lake water... Let's just say I was with my machinist today opening up and honing lifter bores, and other engine will be coming out and apart it looks like just to make sure.

Again I am not trying to make trouble for AFR or anyone else just facts, AFR is working with me to resolve the issues at hand and I know they will make it right and I will for sure buy afr again for future engines, my cobra has maxed out heads it needs afr on it lol
