Dropped a valve seat now what? Rebuilding the engine
Ok last weekend, my last hook of the year I lost a valve seat and tore up cly#1 bad so I’m pulling the engine. Now I was going to do a p-pump swap this winter anyway I already got a CDS pump, But now I don't know if the head is good yet and if I should change the pistons and buy a 12v head to put on my 24v block and port the heck out of it and put a hot 12v cam in it. Or stay 24v head and go that way build up my 24v?
Any thoughts, ideas on what I should do?
Truck is not a 100% puller but almost don't work it any more just cruise it on the street every now and then.
