yea roger that it was!! I actually think it went 12.52 on closer to 50 psi in #2. and #1 was only probably 105 or so at the time.
Do it in the engine bay. Pull the head and oil pan, pull the rods(keep track of the order of rods/pistons. Quickly deglaze hone the cylinders and clean it up well. New rings, rod bearings, head gasket and put it back togeather. Break it in according to motomans page(fun way)
Of course when you pull the head, find out it may just be a burned exhaust valve or sticking intake valve. Mine was not of course but you may get lucky.
