haha , I just came in and told my wife that this is why I became a mechanic . Im out side , got a hot coffee the birds are chirping, the radio is on, and not one person has interrupted me , not once the whole time . This is nivanna to me . No deadlines, no ringinig phones, no price point to worry about and I can walk away at any point if I get tired of it .
Suprisingly out of the 4 ugly cylinders that had the larger ridges, only one of them fell outside of range for taper. All the ring ends still fall within spec up in the top of the cylinder so I think I am good to go . I bet it runs 100% . If it does not explode at startup, it will probably go 25,000 miles . Bearings, and crank are nice The motor looks fresh , just that this little 350 spent its first 30,000 miles pushing around 24,000 pounds, then sat in a field for 11 years .
