Hope you can see it clear i could put some other pics up if youd like to see more let me know.
 
Is a head at a U pull it more than $50? I've never seen it more than that. Although I've never seen a 2G in the junkyard, plenty of 1G and hundais though.
 
I found a head and talked the guy down to $50. I sent it to get machined and steamed because i dont like taking chances. It cost me $20 for a steam clean (head and intake manifold residue removal) and $90 for a machining. If your low on money take that route.
 
thanks for all of the input from everyone now i got some idea of what i need to do ill keep everyone posted as i attempt to get my car running again.
 
ok I just confused there because your name is 420a but you have a 4g63 in your engine bay??WTF LOL

well that would be due to the fact that my first eclipse was a 420a and when i registered i wasa eager to have a username so i put that and since then i have sold my 96 eclipse gs and have bought a 94 gsx which comes with a 4g63t and so therefore i cannot change my username, i have looked into and its not allowed anymore. so nothing i can do about it.
 
we think my timing jumped because of the leaky crank seal that was spitting oil on my belt.I destroyed all my intake valves.
