I posted a week or two back about this engine with milkshake looking oil.
I ended up buying a rebuilt head off of ebay. I figured by the time I
paid to have it milled and pressure checked and had to drive to drop it
off and pick it up, I was farther ahead. I got it for $170 shipped to my
door. I got the head set, bolts and a couple oil filters on clearance at
rock auto for $30 shipped. I had all my parts in 4 days.
I've put a couple hours on the engine since, mainly just messing around
with it. So far, so good. Oil looks nice and clean. When I got it, it
had one running hour on the meter since the last oil change and it looked
horrible.
So, I'm thinking it looks promising.
