OMFG wasnt expecting the call from the machine shop today saying "well we cleaned the heads and well your not gonna belive it but". yes what am i not gonna belive "They are both cracked all the way to the combustion chamber". SON OF A......... bought those heads 2 years ago so i cant even go after the person who sold them to me

so lets see.. got the heads from the machine shop and installed.. now there is no spark on any cylinder??? i have a hand held programer that i can see im getting 90-130 rpms while cranking, 5 degree of advance on my timing, and i know i my temp sensor is reading 80 degrees also. fuel injectors are all working just no spark??? im lost

wow wow really i hate GM... there was ONE blue ground wire by the front right side of the block not attached that stopped it from sparking.. wtf no codes ever went off
