That one cyl that is REALLY clean looks like NEW in person. the pic does not do it justice. any ideas on why that piston is so clean? the head isn't even that clean for that cyl.

this is the set of valves that goes with the clean piston.
How much are coolant filter heads going for these days? When I did mine, it was something like $25 or $30...I don't remember exactly, but even after buying all the other materials (filter, fittings including two valves, hoses, metal to make the bracket, etc), it was less than $100...got my coolant filter from napa today. got new glow plug controller, injectors are on the way back from being pop tested. got an IP "reseal" kit ordered so i can replace that o-ring on my IP in one of my pics.

Congrats on getting the heads off!
How bad were the gaskets? Any pics of the blow-out spot?

Napa 4019 filter head is around $40-$50 now, and the 4070 filter is about $13 i believe. I just got mine last week. I pieced together some fittings and a head from work to use first, but when I went to match up a filter at Napa, they told me with my company discount I could get the filter and the head for less than $30, and they had it in stock so I went ahead and got it instead of waiting for them to find the right book to look in. I sent my original contraption to Devon to let him finish it up
WOW the price went up
still a worthwhile investment IMHO. Just wondering, how's the paint on the filter head? When I got mine back in 2005, the paint that was on it seemed to have been applied as an afterthought...even if I wasn't on a mission to color-code my engine compartment I wouldn't have been comfortable NOT getting a decent coat of paint on it...
