Sounds like there's no compression. Your mechanic hasn't timed the cams correctly, again. You really need to find someone who can time a KV6 from scratch.
That's after you've replaced the bent valves, again.

Agreed, you have had problem after problem using this mechanic - you should change to another 1, or get a bicycle!

seems a good price , seen quite a few on eBay

think the engine has to come out the bottom , imagine that would make it a lot harder instead of being lifted out

Not necessarily Gary.

I have a KV6 here that is in storage, waiting for a project that I hope to get running, one day.

It's not an easy job to change the V6 engine, out of the top or the bottom. Out of the top requires the engine to be tiled to a 45° angle, or it doesn't if in the space between the slam panel and bulkhead.

Pah ! -

nothing a 'gas axe' and 4 foot pry bar couldn't fix.

Tack the front end back on afterwards or use a few pop rivets and araldite., a lick of paint from a spray tin - Robert's your Mother's Sister's Husband.............

my mechanic told me I must change exhaust manifold ( front & rear ) because it closed from inside
it is happened in car or mechanic joking with me?

GrumpyGel · Sep 15, 2016

Is he saying both your manifolds are blocked?

davidsmith1307 · Sep 15, 2016

...and blocked with something so unimaginably hard that it can't be removed?
One of your pistons?
