Pulled engine back out today and stripped it down to the bare block so I could take a look at the cylinder damage. Doesn't look good. At the least I'll have to hone out the cylinders again and I'm not sure I'm willing to get that loose of a fit for my pistons. So... I'm trying to decide if I should start over with a Man O' War block or see if I can salvage this one.
As I look at the specs for the block I can't help but be amazed. These suckers can be bored out to 4.200" and stroke of 4.250"!!! That's 470 cubes! Damn!!
Anyone have any experience with these things? Are they worth the $$$ or should I look into a different block?
