I'm sitting here trying to figure out if having to bore the block and replace the pistons is worse than having to replace the crank and a rod. Regardless, it definitely could have been worse.
You might want to ask your builder if you should replace your
oil cooler. Even though I didn't have chunks of hard metal in the
oil, I went ahead and replaced mine. Let me know if you decide to replace yours and I'll dig up the part number. Also, if you don't want to spend almost three hours installing the cooler like I did, let me know and I'll walk you through that because there is a sequence to removing/installing the
oil cooler.
