Wow I just went down a rabbit hole on Rennlist learning about deglazing or resurfacing this block. Very different. Several guys who seem to know this block suggest just new rings and run it without resurfacing, which is a no-no on traditional iron blocks where you need a fresh cylinder surface to breakin the rings. Were it me, I'd do the rings, and new bearings and consider it a go. One question - is there a ridge at the top of the cylinders?
