Hi Phil, Going to drop the pan tomorrow or thursday, I would like to change out the valves and seats but I dont want to brake the bank on engine parts. I think you are right about the piston pin causing the bore damage. I also want to turn this project round this spring/summer and have it on the road asap. The engine was overhauled in 1947 and has +40 thou on the main and big ends, bore is standard.
kev.
