So the head is now torn down, about half my valve stem seals were leaking, the seals are hard as rock and crunchy, they've never been changed to my knowledge with 150k miles on the car, long over due.





The valves themselves were in pretty good conditions, I cleaned them all and lapped them all in their respective seats, also pretty good for their mileage, no pitting, just dirty.

Cleaned it all and started to reassemble and found I received the wrong valve stem seals, so it'll be a couple days before I get the right ones. Then I'll get the new springs & retainers in along with the GSC S2 cams.

I spent a week or so tearing down the bay and cleaning it up and as of yesterday it's all primed and ready for some color.
