Re: 1978 luv # 2
Got the motor apart yesterday and unfortunately they left water in the cylinders #8 being the worst . I wet everything down with WD-40 and pulled the pistons . Most of the cylinders just had dark marks in them . I hit them by had with a purple scotch bright pad and they went away . #8 has some ridges or grooves that I can catch my nail on . Going to ball hone all of these first and see if they clean up . All the bearings look great no metal in the pan . Talked to comp today about regrinding the cam .236/,245 .608/.614 on 108 hydraulic roller . Last time slip for this motor was a 6.88 @ 99 , it was probably coming apart at that point due to being over revved . Machine shop has pressure checked the heads and they are good . Not 100% sure this wont end up in my Yellow truck
