Embarassingly long story short, due to bad decision making, we dropped my M50 to the ground from about a foot high and the head has a hairline fracture on the sensor in the front, above the thermostat. It doesn't look like it will prevent the motor from running but..I don't know
I've removed an M20 head multiple times and have got it down a science now, I'm terribly clueless about M50's in every aspect. The plan is to take it to a machine shop. So in comparison to an M20 head removal, how difficult is an M50 one? We Pulled the valve cover and got to the whole cams setup and stopped there since we were too uncomfortable to proceed removing any more bolts.
I'll need a new HG and head bolts I assume? (just did that all the time on the M20)
