    Well.. I want to say that's good news.. but, not really HUH? At least "we" can explain most of it..

    Have you put a torque wrench on the crank and done a torque reading? I am assuming Scott did originally... Your new value should be lower due to wear / break-in... it "may" give an indication of bearing condition..

    Again, grasping for straws..

    What head gaskets had been in use? Were they Fel-Pro?

    Head gaskets or intake gaskets? Intake gaskets are Edelbrock, which of course they recommend for use on their EFI intake. I'll get the best that they have at Star Performance.

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
