Thanks.
I'd be dieing for a teardown also - but they just wanted to put in the intake gaskets and see what happens - and that got done - but guess what...

Due to Aluminum heads - ya' got a nicely warped head AND blown head gaskets (Due to overheating) The lady just wanted to save some $$ and not throw an engine at it - but we strongly recommend a Jasper engine or (lesser peferred) and good Junk Yard engine. She wants us to do the head gaskets now...so everything that I did has to come apart. Sometimes people love to beat around the bush...

When we replace the head gaskets - and it still isn't running right - than we will not to anymore work until she gets an engine - than i'll tear it down. I also really-really want to see the bearings too!!

(BTW - when was all said and done for the intake gaskets and started it - it had a nice knocking sound...and she still won't pay for an engine. She wants to put an engine in as a 'last resort.' Hey - fine by me, I still get paid how ever she wants... )
