Hey everybody! Haven't posted on here in awhile. I have been busy with life and work and now have a kiddo and he is amazing "Elliot Maverick Flores" any who I was wondering if it's worth turning over my crank again or just junk it. It's already .10 over I think it was and the look pretty bad. Lots of miss shifts when I was learning to drive with the 5-speed. Block is already .60 over to as well . this engine has never failed on me but the pressure oil is low (10-15) I was looking to just toss it back in the car to drive around... Or should I just get another block (roller) and toss that one in the junk yard. Any advice is appreciated or if you just want to ring in and say hello that's fine
Tough decision... A .010 under crank isn't a problem can be cut another .010, or even to .030 total if necessary... The .060 is max on block, if it isn't ridged & pistons look OK could hone it and re-ring it... Issues with late roller engine is balance isn't same(will require specific flywheel, harmonic balancer and probably pulley spacer)... Also it won't have the boss on lower left rear to fit the ball for clutch linkage, though aftermarket does offer a bracket that mounts from bell bolts... BTW congrats on the new bambino...
I already have another balancer to and I have a cable setup on it right now I just need to a flywheel and the spacer then the walls look alright but that was year ago... And thank you!
