some of you lot may know that i bought myself a cavalier with a let for 300 notes to drop into the corsa. now when i bought it i was told it had dropped a valve on cylinder 2. fair enough i thought, cant be that bad, oh how wrong i was.

took the head off on saturday, and it has dropped a pair of exhaust valve heads...

so thats a new gas flowed head i need, and a set of low compression pistons.......crap..
