Well, if I did major damage to the lower end of the engine, I guess I should have my other block rebuilt and start over.

I guess this time I will make sure the oil pump is working before I put it all together, and get an actual oil pressure gauge, instead of relying on the oil pressure light.

And it shouldnÆt take me near as long to put it all back together the second time around.

Just not sure if I should get a new head or reuse the one I have on it now.
