I hope all is well local guys telling me its alright.
The builder assured me it was one of the best block he worked on in a long time. He does his own boring etc so can't blame the other guy. I can't wait to hear what he has to say, the engine turned freely by hand when he delivered it.
Looks like I have to build my own motor !
Contingency plans in the works maybe ?
I have my old block all strip down ready for a acid bath, re-hone, shave the heads and polish the crank as a backup grab a re-build kit on flea bay and build it myself.
At this point I am still Boating and hoping for the best !
