We soaked the stuck valve over the weekend in Marvel Mystery oil, hoping it'd do some good. We turned Charlene over and the valve stuck every time it compressed. We freed it up several times but it stuck the next time. The guy helping me thinks the valve is bent. Does that sound right ?
So...what are my choices here? Would the engine rebuild shops have a rebuilt head for a 281? And how about a local machine shop rebuilding it? I'll spend some time on the phone tomorrow looking at options.
The only good news is now I can have the exhaust done right while off the motor.
Just a little bummed out here.
