Just a little update. I got the engine apart, and did some looking. Not as bad as I thought it might be. Obviously, it needs a new piston. I had planned on replacing the pistons this year, as I wanted more compression. It needs one rod. The #4 cylinder needs a sleeve.
The heads are Dart Pro-1, ported by Gordon. I'll have a new head drop shipped to him so he can port it for me. That will take 2-3 weeks - I'm hoping less. Both heads get all new gear. I think the only thing I'm going to re-use is the guide plates.
The crank doesn't look bad at all. I'll have it mic'ed at the machine shoip and we'll see what we can do.
Oil pressure never dropped below 50psi. Although, there was a lot of coolant in there. The bearings looked pretty bad.
I need the car to run by Sep 9th. I wonder if I'll make it?
