Awww tank U vedy much grasshoppers <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> for the great reply on the shiny new motor.Yes...yes I did stand around & drooled on it, untill I saw the antifreeze sweating out of the side of the block <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" /> I could of almost cryed when I saw that <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/baby.gif" alt="" />.There was 2 cracks in the block between the two frost plugs under the exhaust side.Luckily the very reputable machine shop where I had the block done said they would & could fix it by stitching it <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />.Got it back today. They admitted they did not magniflux the block assuming that it was good already.
If it ain't going to go fast,might as well make it look like it does <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
