update:
Got the motor out and apart, pulled the head off and discovered what happened. huge chip on #3 and a hairline fracture on #4.... pics ...
Cyl #4

cyl #3

the head, valves & chambers don't look too bad but we have more to tear down. bad part is the valves may be bent.

my assistant and morale support

also the pressure plate on the clutch is scared and needs replacing, buying a new clutch.
more to follow.

yeah a very nice alternative to the FP black and flows more some of the ATP workmanship could be better and the Turbine side could use a weight reduction(tons of extra metal) the fit is tight and i have only seen 2 other evo's on here that are running it. this thread https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...2r-pt6262.html
