Driver Side for sure, So I am guessing 8.
I will pull the plugs soon and take a look.
Funny thing other than smoke, You can't really tell. It still drives normal, no sounds of any kind and no check engine light. It dumped half a quart of oil through the breather though.

Barely any. At Idle there is like 5% extra vibration you can kind of feel it.

Same thing mine did. Mine doesn't even smoke. Just a ton of crankcase pressure. Compression is down on 3 cyl. I was looking at the MMR 1000 build as well but I am nervous about using them.

If you call on the corral.net there are a bunch of guys that tell horror stories about them.

Exhaust. Probably 12' GT500, any reviews out there? Good or bad.

Well that was quick Kane. You could have gotten a lot of money out of your intact stock motor. Good luck with the rebuild.
Anywho my next mod I am indecisive about either doing Koni ST.Ts or Yellows. (nearly $1000 vs $500)

Haha ya! I just want to fix the ride quality sooner but I'm sure if I wait and do it right with yellows I will be glad I did.
