Awesome!! How did you get the ball bearing W2? Didn't think it was available yet.Got the head back from the shop. Harrison at ATL Powerhouse Performance said that all of the valve guides were good, none of the valves were bent just 3 valve seals in cylinder 1,3,4 all on the left side (exhaust only) were shot. So I replaced them all with Viton valve seals and had the valves lapsed and the head completely cleaned. He said it could have been because of carbon build up or just shitty seals from the factory when they put them in. Idk but Also got the head resurfaced.
I spent a good hour trying to get 1 valve spring in but the tool i had to compress the springs just fought me on getting the keepers in there. So i threw that P.O.S away and bought a new one that hopefully will work for me. Id hate to have to take the head back to Harrison to have him put the springs in ?
BUT!!! The main focus here is all of my new parts i got and the long awaitedW2 Ball Bearing edition ?
That is the PTP turbo blanket for the oem turbo. It looks like it will fit, fingers crossed.
The motor mounts are the 70 urethane
