Well, finally starting to get somewhere on this car. After finding all the wrong stuff on the motor, I started getting parts together.
Got the block back from the machine shop. Bores where in factory specs, just needed a finish hone. Crank was ok, rod journals did have to be turned.
I ordered ACL mains and rod bearings from MAP. Got them earlier this week. However the mains were wrong. MAP came through and got ahold of ACL for me, and got me another set coming. Very happy with that.
With the water that was in the bores, and the one bent rod, I was not wanting to use the rest of them. Seems as how i am not doing an all out build, and still on somewhat of a budget, I picked up a set of EVO 8 pistons/rods.
So right now just waiting on my main bearings to show up and than I can start assembly.
So tonight I just finished up cleaning up the block.
Looks all pretty, for now. lol.
