cLyDe,

Just curious, were the seats failing or the valves tuliping?   Or is it too soon to tell?

The engine has over 100 k on it

The last time I did a service the exhaust valves were running tight 

So my next service was not going to allow me to have spec valves

In other words the exhaust valves were going into the heads

So I would need a head job

This runs $15k on a TR 

I got a complete engine with 16k on it for $9k

That's the story

Hey Clyde,

Catch me up, buddy. What happened with your TR's engine?  I missed the story somehow; Probably while I was ranting about F1 changes. :-P
