Just want to remind you guys to always change your timing belt when
you take the head off... You wonder how I know? Well, remember that
brand new Korman stage II head I just put on last week? The timing
belt broke on it today on my way to work. I told the shop to change
it when the car was apart; when I picked the car up, they told me
that it didn't need to be changes, that it looked brand new (changed
it 20,000miles, and 2.5yrs ago). So far they've seen several bent
valves. Tomorrow they are taking the head off to see if it's cracked.
..
Later,
Jason
