Now that I'm about to put a rebuilt head on my M20 barnfind, my thoughts are drifting to the M10. I bought it 14 yrs ago with 157k and it has about 215k now and the internals have never been touched. Externally, it has an 8lb JB Racing fw, BavAuto headers and a full Ansa Sport cat delete (header to tail).
Conventional wisdom is that if you freshen the head on an old engine you put unwelcome stress on the bottom and and threaten your bearings. Does this apply to an otherwise well running M10 or is it much ado about nothing ?
TIA for the input.
