well I was using a stock clutch from autozone which is my fault for using a shity clutch but as far as the engine being broke I belive it is the intake valves or so my mechanic said but we havn't taken the top end apart yet. He says it's not timing because the rear bank has no problems.

you did a compression test ?
what were the result ?

if it's a drop valve, you might have pistons, valve guide, retainer and valve damage.

Yea the front bank is all reading 0 cause the valves are gone, so does anyone know where I can get parts for the top end. I am just going to rebuild for turbo.
