Well, my world just came crashing down around me. Serious ******* heartbreak.
I got the motor in and everything hooked up. I started adding coolant and and after adding a gallon and a half, I looked under the car and saw the dripping. The passenger side cylinder head has two cracks in it. One at each end around the lower head bolt hole. I’m totally crushed. I’ve invested so much time and money into these heads and now one of them is junk. How in hell am I going to find a replacement? I’m literally sick to my stomach right now. I can’t even look at the freaking car. Not only is the monetary hit devastating, but it’s to the point in the year that I don’t have any spare time to wrench on it. So, most likely the car will sit, untouched, for the foreseeable future.
I went from being so excited to finally firing this thing off to feeling totally and completely defeated.
If you have a single W2 head you’d like to sell, PM me.
Eff my life.
