    So I just self F it and went and bought a head gasket from auto zone and took the front head off to inspect. Check the entire head and everything seemed fine and the pistons also. I put the head back on and torques and soaked the lifters and added oil in the valleys this time.

    When I went to tighten down the rockers...it seemed as though this time the springs actually compressed lower this time than before and not all are depressed at the same time








    I need new lin gaskets and ive been busy with work so ill finish tommorow or Saturday.

    Also the rockers before had play which I think was causing the tapping but this time NONE has play.
