Update on my motor problems...

[NYCVR6]

Today i finally got a chance to get working a little bit.. 3 hours of work netted this:


No, this is not a game...
So copper gasket spray was most definitely not the culprit, gaskets were perfect, no coolant/oil mix, plugs were clean, basically no signs of a gasket issue.
One cylinder clearly has valve tap, the one that has zero compression. Im wondering if a valve dropped, cam timing went off or something. The motor ran dead smooth and timing was perfect when we started it up and drove around. This was an all of a sudden thing. The heads are going back to the machine shop this week hopefully, so they can see what happened. Everything on the bottom end seems perfect besides the tap on the one piston. I will update asap..
Keep in mind i have no idea what im doing according to a certain troll on these forums.. Take that copper spray and stuff it up you wonton ass... Just bustin chops of course...
