Bought the motor including the head for dirt cheap. Head is in great shape. Not sure about the sleeves. They seem superficial when i touch them but as you know it minute clearances are what we are talking about here.

Car popped a ringland

Wondering if this motor is salvageable for a winter project when i am bored.

 

If its std bore now you should be able to bore it

 

So your saying you can't feel them? That means you should be able to bore is .020 over as mongorat said

 

Right....u cant feel the damage....it is microscopic.....

Boring is expensive isnt it....damn...

 

Relative to a new block; no it's not expensive at all.

Glass is half full

 

There is plenty of meat on the bones there. Run a ball hone on it and see if that cleanes it up.

 

yea screw boring a light hone should fix that right up
