It doesn't now, but the previous owner kept having issues with it(hence how I got it). It's got stock heads and flat top looper pistons, mine was an early one and came stock with the bigger rods. Mine was also before they lowered the compression for unleaded gas. They offer the low compression heads for it, but why change it. It runs great, I've got close to 200 hours on it since I did anything to it internal. And I even run it on 87 octane with no spark knock at load(but does rattle a little at idle on the low octane). It seems to get great economy to boot for a V4. 7-8.5GPH @ cruise and burns around 13GPH WOT.
