LOL, i was gonna ask about the alumaweld there <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> the way i am with my gear you'd think i have stock in lamiglas...

the look on the machinist's face was priceless when i had him take a look at the block and crank. he was wondering why i even brought it in, all it's gonna take is a hone to break the glaze and i'm having him polish the crank as well. also having everything cleaned up, i've got a sinking feeling that all the build up black crud in that engine had something to do with the t-chain tensioner failing after 6 months.
