I don't think you can put much stock in what the piston crowns and chambers look like. This is a high performance engine that's done nothing but idle for 2 years. It's had all 12 disciples, every street preacher and the ghost of Wolfman Jack laying on of hands and twisting the knobs trying to exorcise the demon.
It's going to show carbon build up. But it is good to notice it is happening, as continued prolonged idling while d!cking with it is going to carbon the engine up enough to cause other issues. How deep a dive is this shop going to do? Out and apart?

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
