I need someone down in the LA area to get my head and drive it from PPE to SoCal Diesel. Anyone that can do this for $$$?

I wish I could help. I have my great niece and nephew coming over in a hour or I would go. You might want PPE to UPS to Guy it would arrive Monday:thumb:

Too scared to UPS my head :baby:

PPE said they arent shipping today, dunno if thats UPS Ground or just them, but if I dont get anyone to get it today or one of Guys workers/runners cant go get it, Ill be down there first thing Monday morning and move it around myself.

Thanks for the help anyway Kat... that would be a drive for you!

Once again, Kat/Pat and the SoCal gang are lifesavers.

Sounds like my head will be shuttled through some very blessed hands and homes this holiday season, eventually making its way to Guy on Monday :hug::hug::hug:

Yikes!

When Dan called and gave me the compression results I suspected a foreign object may have found it's way into the engine. Lucky it was too big to get past the valve, the damage would have been far worse. :eek:

Does the piston have any marks in it from the valve?

Matching the nut to others on the top of the engine may give us a clue as to where it came from.

Ya, I have an idea.

Moving on, the head will be at Guys on Monday for everything to be checked, the valve replaced and anything else that may have been compromised.

Huge thanks to Pat/Kat/Dan/Chris/and whoever else is involved in getting my head over to Guy.

Until next week.... Merry Xmas everyone :)
