Reply to "#2241 - Engine rebuild"

rockyMember

Your pictures are very interesting. So it looks like yoiu have some bearing and crank issues, possibly caused by oil starvation?

Due to the overbore, and the scorpion lifters, obviously someone reworked your engine in the not too distant past?

How many miles were on the engine since the rebuild?

What oiling mods were done? The Moroso restrictors in the lifter oil feeds and the cam bearings? Were the lifter bores bushed?

Both of your crate engines talk about "oiling updates", but they don't really say what they were.. You might want to be sure in that area.

Just a comment - buying a crate engine will definately put you way ahead (schedule-wise) on your project - remember, you only have until late June - mid-July until the snow melts!
