Hi all.
Back from vacation and last night I removed the right bank of heads, the side with only 3 broken lower studs!
All went smoothly, and here is the outcome:
The heads on this side seemed to have more or less the same amount of very slight erosion as the left bank. Most of the slight damage appears to be outside of where the head gasket sits. Is this normal?
In any event, I do plan to get the heads surfaces flycut, even if the damage is very minor.
All cylinders look good, with no scoring, except #5, which has one shallow score:
Should I be concerned about this? I was planning to leave the pistons in the cylinders as the engine has only 200K km. I drive this car less than 3,000 KM per year
