Ive got a 67' 273 and i had two cylinders on the drivers bank that had no compression (50 psi and 90. I did a leakdown test, and to the best of my knowledge i heard air coming from the exhaust pipe. Now since i havent been adding lead to my gas for some years now, i figured i had burned out my exh valves.
I pulled the head, pulled the valves out and they look perfect. No chips no burrs they dont appear to be bent and there is no corrosion.I dont think i had a stuck valve because the engine is VERY clean and the guides appear to be perfectly smooth without much play.
I am really stumped. Ideas? Experiences? thoughts?
