It ran for about a week then it lose power one night. Tow it home take oil pan off and find metals. Looks like the cams are grinding the head. Possible cause is I used gease on the cam bearing and oil can't get through. Will need to tear the engine apart to see if there are any other clues. I don't think I can save the head but I hope I can save the block. Not gonna d anything untill it get warm and stop snowing. My garage is not big enough to fit the car and have room to rebuild engine. Car need to sit on driveway to do that. The Celica is now on jacks in the garage.
It was fun when it run. With P&P the engine is more powerful and rev much easier.
Go to the last few pages from the link to see the damage.
