In the event the simple fixes wont help, here is the link to the company where I got mine:

I got mine off ebay (through these guys) but I dont see any active auctions for them at this point. Give them a call, they are super nice guys, and can get you what you need, for a reasonable price.

A bad set of wires were the problem with my misfire. I highly recomend that you change them, and route them right. Changed mine with MSD Street Fires($40, AutoZone).

If you need new heads, this is the place for better ones:http://www.hughesengines.com/partRes...ID=10&pType=CH

I got mine from cch. I looked at hughes and for the specs they have you can get the heads from cch both for the price of one. Now thats just valve size and cc size not sure if they have a difference in porting or not. If you want just a cheap replacement get the HD heads from cch. The were pretty easy to deal with and answered my questions.

I'm kinda bored so I might go tear it apart right now. I need to find some lights so i can see in my storage shed. My sleep is all screwed up so I sleep during the day and am awake at night. It messes me up on getting stuff done during the day. Then when I do get up its dark and I dont feel like doing anything.

I thought you already had it apart?
Or are you talking about the short block?

Short block. I'm gonna tear it all down and take it to the local machine shop. Have him go over the block and maybe the pistons if they are fixable. Or see what he advises me to do about it.
