    If your worried about it being hyour valves, just take it to any work shop for a vac test. RLC or Cylinder Head Warehouse in Capalaba should be fine (both around Smith St) And probably the closest to you.

    Assuming you have the head off already?

    clinton lol.

    Took head off on the weekend and took it to a mob that my mechanic recommended.

    Turns out the owner is one of our customers at my work

    so he vac tested the whole head and spun up all the valves for free

    head is ok. which means its pistons/rings time

    any tips for a first timer? hah!

    He is VERY very well priced.

    The place he works at is moderately shanty, and Al looks like a wizard, but he's damn good
