OK.. I just did a compression test. I don't know the firing order (haven't opened the book yet) but here it goes.

Front of engine to back.

Pass. side:

1) 140/150psi , 2) 140/150psi , 3) 140/150psi

Drivers side:

1) 140/150psi , 2) 0psi , 3) 140/150psi

I guess I found the problem huh??

I also took some pics.

Where does this vac. line go?

Can some one direct me to a site that has the head removal instructions?

Thanks

I wish I could just pull the motor but I just don't have the room. I'm also building my mustang right next to the GN.

I might be wrong, but those look like 72's :confused:
 
look like msd 50s to me. Are you gonna do both head gaskets? Its pretty straight forward removing them although a few of the back bolts can be a pain to loosen. Especially on the passenger side/
 
Injectors

3203's are Delphi 75's, I just checked mine. These just might be the 50's, P/N on these are 3279's from the pic.

I'm going to do both.. It's tore apart so why not.. I may even get new heads (???) I'm also going to replace some sensors & install some aftermarket gauges. I'm also thinking about picking up a CPT66 turbo from Cottons.
