    I have a question for you guys. I’m looking at a head a guy has. So he says it’s a 2 gen head with 272 cams. Also comes with new valves and lifters. He said he had it on a 1st gen.

    No I loaded her up on a trailer. Got her home and found a bad timing belt. Bought a kit for it. While tearing down to install noticed she’s bleeding all over the place.
