im guessing i blew the gasket when the motor overheated. theres an engine alarm on there, but dident go off for some reason when the temp was rising. ended up smoking the engine real bad. was paying more attention to a snotty inlet, than my guages at the time. i also dont know the original cause of the overheat.

the mechanic i had check said its not worth replacing, since i have fairly crappy compression. if i remember,#1/2 were at around 140 my #3 was at 120 and #4 at 150. based on that, he said it may not be a healthy engine to consider cracking open.
