I have to admit I did not do a leakdown test. I do know that I was experiencing zero engine problems prior to me tearing into this thing. What started out as simply pulling it out so I could save a little money because the body shop needed it out to fix some impact damage I had when I was hit coming out of T9 at Summit Main last season to some basic cleaning to where I am now. This has been quite the experience. There have been times that makes me doubt myself in being able to get it back together but at the same time I used to think that my meager tech skills would never get to where I am right now. It's a learning process and I'm trying to enjoy the ride because i think it will make me that much better when I get back to the track. The way I see it, this experience will give me a much better understanding of how things work in my car's engine therefore I will know how to apply that to my driving.
