Not one of its better days..

This is my car how it sits as of monday.. :tdown:





You can see in this pic at least 6 of the valves are bent, its hard to tell on some, but they are supposed to be "sealed" and you can see daylight around cylinder 1 and 2's valves..

Oh yeah.. any suggestions on..

Performance head gasket?
Performance Head studs?

Depending on how much they want for stock valves, whats the resource for oversized valves? I have an extra cylinder head/cam(regrind...)

Bummer...

You can pick up raceware headstuds (Pelican parts sells them among others). I think they're around $180 for the set.

The stock headgasket should be find unless you start hitting 1+ bar boosts (even then it depends). That is, as long as everything is in good tune.

PS- get that green coolant out of there!

Flosho, I have a head that has a small grove where the head gasket blew, but all of the valves are good.
