[QUOTE="00Whitey, post: 16585210, member: 111622"] Update - Ended up with a Gen 2 Short block installed with the Gen 1 Heads. Had the valve seats gone thru and checked out, put ARP studs and good Cometic head gaskets. Dyno'ed at 640 on the original tune with DW95's, no adjustments needed, go figure ? So apparently my original motor had already some issues going on that we were not aware of. It ended up being a blown head gasket and piston damage on #7. As an FYI, for those getting a Gen 2 short block, beware that the oil pan does not have provision for the oil level sensor. So you either have to swap pans or get the FOMOCO jumper harness to disable the pop up low oil indicator, pn is HU5Z-14A411-F for those interested. [/QUOTE]
