Hey guys,
Was just looking at the idea of maybe going the C6 Z06 route this summer, so i started to read about C6 and C6Z06.
And it was my surprise to see some LS7 owner having they engine grenade because of valve dropping in the cylinder because of bad head.
From what i saw its 3-4k US$ to have new after marked head with good tolerance and all the other stuff around it (valve, retainer, spring etc...)
Kind of make me think of 2.5L STi engine...
Sad to think about it, i tought LS engine were all bullet proff...
Anyone here have deal with this situation and know a shop who can do this kind of job?
Would not like to buy a toy and always be woried about the thicking bomb.
All info welcome!
