Hey Everyone, thanks for all you input....Engine looks like a 1945 casting. There are no raised numbers on the RH front of the block. Numbers have been cast/stamped into the rear bell housing...

Anyway, my valve guide removing crowbar and 'top down' valve guide drift should be arriving any day now.

Once the valves are out, I'll remove the cam bearings for the acid dip.

Current plan is to have the engine re-bored (Currently standard), purchase new pistons. Install new std Main/conrod bearings. All crankshaft dimensions are within 0.001 of round.

Install new (single piece guides) valves, guides, etc.

I haven't measured the cam yet, but they seem quite expensive too.

The last thing will be to get my hands on some double-row 'V' belt water pumps.
