good point mike but thats the first thing i check when cover and oil pump came off to check the dots. they were died on.

lg told me those patroit gold dual valve springs(660. rated) are to weak and i need the 921's, but i think if that was the case i would not have 3 pistons in a row they would be all over fucked up!?!?!?!

that nick isn't as bad as i thought, but still sux.

I really think the cam is ground wrong. MikeP if it was off one tooth I would think there would be more than just the first 3 cylinders that kissed the valve.

Let's see how LG handles this if the cam is fucked up. I'll be interested only because of my last experience waiting on my coil overs from them and how much lip they gave me.
