Default Lets rebuild this Ls2

well long story short no.7 cylinder went lean and the piston grenaded inside the chamber and messed up the head (not beyond repair) but its still a sore to see. already bought a new piston, rod, rings, and bearings for the one cylinder and i plan on putting it back together, cylinder looks perfect. Ill be sending the one head back to t.e.a to have it fixed... also sold my 230/238 .600/.604 112+2 eps cam and bought a slightly bigger one 239/246 .624/.615 112+3.. we will see how this goes
