I have a 73 914/4 with a bad leak down ( O.K. gone) on 3-4 head.How do you feel about a single head grind or replacement? The owner of this car is into it for $7000.00 including paint. The car is real nice and in good shape. They are out of funds.
I am tring to help. Dave |

Yes, it would. Check the condition of the valves, look for burning or excessive wear at the valve seats.
You could just lap the valves so they seat better and it will run for awhile. Better than nothing I guess. Look at the cylinder walls for scoring when you have it apart too. Geoff |
