i got an rb25 a few weeks ago. problem is that it skipped timing and now the valves are bent. the guy that had it before me didnt have the money or time to fix it so i took it off his hands lol. i was wondering how much money people spent on new parts for the head. anyone?

This dude never emailed me or anything so I'm thinking he already found another source or doesn't have $50 to spend

Oct 6, and probably not going back, unless I get a DoD job back here (which would be awesome). Probably going to working for the FAA stateside though.

I thought z32 na vavles were a direct fit intake and exhaust? I remember being jelous of rb25s when i was looking for valves since nothing usdm crosses over for me (rb20) and the rb25 and z32crossed over.
