soo i took the motor apart today... it has screw in rocker studs, double valve springs, pushrod guide plates, new valves, new cam and lifter(even tho im goign to replace them), later this weekend im going to pull the pan and see what kinda of shape the rest of the motor is in... the pistons looked fairly new but i think i want to get some domed ones anyways for a better compression ratio... overall i was very impressed with what kinda of shape the motor was in....
