NOT blown head gaskets after all.
Some of the sleeves had dropped.
Pistons, rings, bearings, heads, crank look good. Some of the teflon is worn off the piston skirts and bearings. Ceramic coatings look pretty good, only a couple of places with minor erosion in the combustion chambers. It had about 11,000 miles.
Deck and hone the block, resurface the heads and lap the valves, new rings and bearings, new gaskets and seals.
Gonna have just a little more compression, it was 9.7 and now it should be about 9.9:1.
With leaking head gaskets, 9.7:1 cr, and overdrive crank pulley it made 350/350 N/A. Now it's gonna have good cylinder sealing, 9.9:1 cr, and underdrive crank pulley. Hoping to hit 400 N/A.
