          not sure yet....

          not sure if the valve snapped causing the piston to drop or something came lose in the piston and f-ed up the valve. The engine had 165k on it

                        i wasnt racing, but i was hauling ***.

                        its basically the same engine, just have to swap over my intakes,oil pan, accessories, front cover.
                        the old motor lasted 165k with me beating it to hell.
