That's awesome that you're going to do bring it back right. Would love to see pics of it when you're done. Hope the rest goes smoothly for you
Oricale since you have no axe to grind with the original rebuild shop, I wonder if you planned to share your findings with whomever the owner of that shop is? Might help him if he ever gets another to rebuild, and therefore save a potential Z buyer from disaster. I do love the picture with the bolt stuck in the valve. Priceless. Just a thought--Bob..
