Well, it happens. Leak down test has confirmed my L82's #7 cylinder is way out of specs. The passenger side looks great- all within 10% or less. But the #7 is at 43%. I think when two of my injectors tanked the second and third order effects led to the loss of compression. Hydrolock on the "light" side.

:cry


Oh well. I think I know what my winter project will be.... I'm looking at using my block and heads (ported heads, 3 angle valve job, full roller, etc) with a mild bump in power between 300-350hp. Maybe. That would run about 3.5k. We'll see...
