Finally made time to post some pics of the orange 06 'bent valve' project, in case anyone is interested in valve carnage lol
Recently bought this 06 as a well used fixer, textbook skipped timing belt. Anyway I am bringing this one back to road warrior status, here are some pics of the work in progress. If anyone cares, I can post updates as I get it back on the road. Hard to tell in the pics, but all the exhaust valves got hit and are bent, and took the guides with them.
I think I will pull the pistons and inspect for any damage, and throw a fresh set of rings on it. No sign whatsoever of any ring ridge, and cross hatch is still clear, not bad with nearly 240K on the clock. Feel free to lend any input, this is my first T200 shortblock, but it looks to be wearing very well.
PS: Sorry about the cat, not sure why he needed to jump up while I was taking this pic LOL My helper?
