    Unhappy Ooooooh how I miss the Beast

    So my truck has been at the shop for 10 days now, they finally got the heads back on friday just before close of business. All I know right now is that they replaced the valves and did the normal checks on heads at the machine shop. I just hope I get it back tomorrow, and they can finally tell me exactly what happened to fry the valves.

    I hope you are ready to hear that kind of news. I always feel like I'm in a boxing match and the opponent gets in a good punch in the face when I hear that kind of news. I just try to keep ducking and diving..
