[QUOTE="Derek@Vision Diesel, post: 571365, member: 344"] well I wanted to put a close to this thread, we have some results. Ended up having the valves re ground and clearances re checked by our machinist. He found a couple of valves to be ground improperly. We then sourced a used block out of an 06, had new bearings installed and a very light hone job. Then slapped it all back together. Remember these heads still have the initial .014 taken off of them, so they are definitely out of spec (but customer did not want a warranty or anything, he just wanted it done cheap). All was put back together and it runs like a top now. Still haven't had time to completely tear down the old block to see just what was making the loss of compression/strange ticking noise. Possibly a mixture of valves not sealing and a little bit of a lifter issue. Truck is in the customers hands with probably 1000 miles on it by now and all is good! [/QUOTE]
