    Looks like exhaust valves stem seal leaking badly. Did they put new head when did inframe? What is the shop name ? We need to stay away from them.

    i have ran many overheads. you dont run a overhead chasing another issue that wasnt overlooked who did the inframe. Im guessing who did the inframe also did the overhead 6 months later do t "another issue" that they screwed up with. If the overhead was ran by someone else, why not take it back to the place where you had the inframe done. You throwing money at something done by someone elses mistake.
    Sucks you are resorting to figure out this problem on your own after you spend you hard earned money to make things right the first time. Take them to court if they dont make things right.

    thats one shady rebuild and you should be on their arse about all the extra money you threw into issues where you needed a overhead run and big oil leak. Dont let these guys walk from it

    I didnt tell the shop a year ago to do the overhead. They took it upon themselves and did it anyway
