I will be looking at a 00 LS1 6 speed camaro with heads and cam..The owner of the car installed the heads and cam..The heads are Stage 2 from Patriot and the cam is a comps cam, I don't remember the specs of the cam..Not knowing if he did a good job or not of the head and cam install..But what signs are there to look for when driving the car? What could go wrong in a bad head and cam install? What types of symptoms would I hear? What should I look for? Any tips, ideas and suggestions?

 

leaking coolant
noisy valve train
poor tune

 

busted head gasket
spun cam bearings
other spun bearings if they got dirt inside
leaking timing cover gasket
definately bad tune
other things
