6.0 swap done with problems!!! help
#32
well i hooked up compressed air to #1 cylinder at TDC and air is leaking out of the intake so im pretty sure i have bent valves so im getting a valve job done on monday for that head and hopefully that will fix it. also i noticed texas speed sent me 5.7 head gaskets so i dont know if those are hurting anything or not. but i guess theres nowhere i can buy 1 head gasket so i'll have to buy a set again for 6.0's?

Valve job done, $200 dollars wasted... its still got blow by and its still got low compression on the whole left bank and its still ticking for about five mins and then stops i guess its a broken ring making the noise but i dont know why that whole side is bad and the other is perfect? still has random misfire and o2 codes i guess the low compression throws off the misfire code?
Where can i buy piston rings set?

If you want you can come by my house and I could log your truck for you see if your o2 sensors are even working. Try putting a couple of squirts of oil in the spark plug hole then do a compression test, supposedly if your compression goes up then you have bad rings...
