Message	[ http://www.twinturbo.net/net/viewmsg.aspx?forum=technical&msg_id=835254 ] [ http://www.twinturbo.net/net/viewmsg.aspx?forum=technical&msg_id=824761&words=machined%3a%3aheads ] Sorry, i don't know HTML and can't be bother to do those links up right. Copy and paste i guess. Happened to my Z after about 137K Miles. From what i've read it seems like it does affect all 90 models. And BTW, i didn't change out the heads, seemed more cost-effective to just get a JDM engine. Hope that helps some, i'd tell you more about it, but i don't have time, and searching will yield you lots of info on this. "What you are about to hear is the truth. And by true, i mean false.
