I wasn't going to do anything with the motor, but then changed my mind. I just wanted someone to give it a once over to make sure it was good before I put in back in the car. Didn't won't to redo the car and find out the motor would die later. Here is what he found. More than a couple bad bearings, a deep groove in the crank and the block was a mess. The block was bored .032, the pistons size .030. 4 of the rods were short and the other 4 longer on the other side. The funny thing is the engine ran really strong, no smoke or funny noises.
