Suspected head gasket fail

All done

just had it out for a spin tonight! absolutely worth the the pain motor feels so alive, ok power must have been down with head gasket gone between 1+2. But new rings definitely make the difference. Takes me back to mx race bikes, new rings got you that hole shot, simply puts that punch back in the motor,, I can definitely recommend if you doing the head gasket, chances are you’ll be doing shells ,, just “DO” the rings as well,,

. .. I’ll redo a compression test the same way and check results when I put a few miles on the old girl..
