Grady, Thanks for the words of advice. The only reason I've torn it down is due to what I assume to be valve guide wear since it was using oil at a rather high level (quart/300-500 miles) The car seemed to run fine otherwise. I have to admit, I'm not really the redline it every time type driver.
I'm in Dallas but am sending the heads, pistons and cylinders to Ollies but shipping the whole case and crank out there concerns me over possible loss/damage since they are so heavy. It was easy to VERY securely pack up the other stuff to ship.

Is there anyone who knows a shop in Dallas that can do this (measure crank and case) or would they also send this out? I don't need to add another middle man if someone's going to take it in the front door and send it out the back door to some unknown machine shop for me...and then charge me for the process.

Thanks again,
