Wow, had no idea of this.
I'm glad I went through such a struggle to keep this motor and make it work. I even brought my motor to a supposed "respectable" engine builder in town and because the block was so rusty he told me "that thing will never run, you should just get another core".
After painstakingly tearing it down the bores were so nice I honed them by hand and slapped in forged pistons and a balanced lower. She runs like a top and needless to say I didn't go back there ever again.
In short, it is worth the trouble to some...
