Okay for sure my painting budget is shot now. I got a call from my engine guy to come down and take a look.
Crank is rough, real real rough, and has not yet been magnaflxed. Damper is not snug fitting either.
Block = Cylinders 2-7 are 030 and good, #1 is 035, and #8 has broken rings.
Block is good on the sonic test, that's about all. Could probably go 060, but won't do that
So I need pistons, rods and a crank. We spoke tonight about me sourcing a stroker kit, which may be similar price to a separate buy on pistons, rods and crank.
Biggest problem is I'll need to go +040. Most common kits are 030.
This kind of sucks, not what I was expecting.
So suggestions on best place to get a rotating assy, or stroker kit, much appreciated.
I am probably going to have to sell some real nice vintage mustang stuff, that I was going to keep, to make up some of the budget
