In a nutshell, it entails a whole lot of work that goes much easier with
the engine on a stand.

Basically this is the point where you decide if it's worth the time and effort
to rebuild or are you better off getting a rebuilt or crate motor.

It's a rebuilt, with forty over pistons, and a ten, ten crank.

Bill, could you expand on the 10 10 crank. What does this mean?

Thanks,

Bill

Hi Bill,
You have ten under rod inserts, I presume the mains the same. The
next worst crank would be a 20, 20 and they'd probably pass that on to
the next lower shop on the totem pole.
