I ordered a new set of hawk street pads, but I noticed there are symmetrical grooves where the brake pads contact. Is this normal wear? There is still pad left. Should I replace the rotors? (id...

    Engine Rebuild

    I am going to do a compression test first, but main reason for rebuild is reliability (its a daily driver). All the accessories and sensors on the engine have been replaced recently. At 150k miles I replaced the head gaskets and checked compression (few years ago). The engine now has 200k+ miles...

    Engine Rebuild

    thanks. my plan is to rebuild the engine for reliability now (cheaply as possible), but also allow the option for a turbo later on down the road (<450hp). Is there any reason I cannot re-use the stock heads? Again, I would just like to "boost" my way there if I decide to go for more later on.
