Found out why my motor wasn't as good as other vortecs and my valves seals being messed up didn't help much either but instead of being a brand new crate motor like i was told when i bought it it has been rebuilt and bored 30 over but with new rings and everything else practically new it should run like a top and if I can figure out how to post pics I will.

maybe im nuts, but i like my motors to be built in damn near sterile environments. Most ORs wish they were as clean as I get my work space for motor work.
