Cylinder Head Damage Fixable??
Hey fella's i need some help.. I have a set of 243 2.5 ported heads.. I noticed my car had a dead spot at partial throttle so i dont some looking around and trouble shooting and found that the #6 plug was loose.. So i tried to tighten it and it wouldn't... So i tore the head off and put a Helicoil in.. Put the head back on and it worked long enough for me to get about 100 miles on it and a dyno tune.. then a week or so later it started doing it again.. I done a compression check and found i still have a leak in that cylinder.. I already dont the Helicoil so is their another option to fixing my problem.. I called a few machine shops and they didn't sound to confident they could fix it... Any Help would be appreciated!
