    Blocker has that motor been bored out? You should check before you go too far as if its already 60 thou over you have nothing left to work with.

    A quick update.
    The motor has been washed and measured at 30thou over, so we are going to 60thou now.

    One of the bores has some rust markings so we're hoping the 60thou will clean that out, some pictures and/or video will come soon.

    Here it is after washing, boring to 60thou decked and reassembled with new parts.

    Looking great Blocker!
    Thanks for the photo filled updates. Before a stinking motor mechanic cracks out a pressure pack take your heads and block to someone that can do it all in heatproof 2 pack paint. It'll look a million bucks.
