OK, went by mechanic to check out damage. Pistons/Rings look good. No scarring on the walls, headgasket looked good, valves look good - would open and close when turn the crack, no visible cracks - didnt have time to clean up head yet but...

I guess I am gonna go ahead and try to get Clearwater head since it is apart. Hate to put it back together and have same issue.

Stumped the mech and me.
