Well, I guess it's time for some updates here. There has been a lot of ground covered, but I'm getting close to finished with it. I made the decision to have the block bored .030" over and install new pistons. I found a set of Mahle 224-3512 HAWR .030. Thats a set of 8 IDIT pistons with rings already installed. The machine shop needed to deck the block .004", I also had them polish the crankshaft, and they were able to leave it standard for mains and rods. They also found the crank was .004" out of straight to, and were able to straighten that back out. I was advised to leave the cam bearings alone, as well as piston pin bushings in the rods, so I did. While waiting on the machine shop, I worked on cleaning parts, and what odd tasks I could. One things was a speedy sleeve on the harmonic balancer.
