Ahhhh.... That sucks, sorry to hear. Gotta pull 1 of mine for a head gasket, hopefully I caught it early enough.

That sucks! was wondering how much louder the dry pipes were?

Motor is at the machine shop. All new ss valves will be installed. The dry pipes were not as loud as I thought they would be.

That sucks about the valve dropping. How did the rest of the engine look since you have it apart?

I think all damage is in the #5 cylinder. I only removed the one head. The machine shop has not tore the rest down. I hope to get results this Friday. I'm pulling the other motor out this week also.

Glen did you drop a seat and than break a valve? I did it two times past two years what a mess.Starting to wonder about the gas we are using.

Mabey. Valve stem was still there. I pulled out the 2nd motor tonight. I will have it refreshed also with manley severe valves. Will post what the shop says.

I fixed everything right. http://www.offshoreonly.com/classifi...o58129-en.html
