Wiggle test
.
(1978sc, 193K miles, History unknown) I have just pulled the Pistons off Case is still intact. When I grab the small end of any rod sticking out the side off the case and wiggle it fore and aft, I can feel it, I can actually hear the oil suction as I go back and forth. I've got a feeling that I shouldn't be feeling this much play |

With the .008 top ring clearance from the rebuild section I'd say it's time to break out the micrometer/plastigauge.
