Bought a used 1996 1FZ-FE engine to rebuild. Started on rebuilding the head and discovered that the cams have
made contact with the head on the #7 cradle. Cams do not currently contact cradle when installed. Cams have been removed before and about half the caps were installed in wrong locations.
Is the head now scrap metal?
What would cause this issue? (over heat, loose caps, misplaced caps?)
Any other ideas/comments?
Anyone have a head for sale?
Thanks,
Don
