The guy selling it might’ve known what he’s doing.

Yes Bart, ive been talking to Paul through pm"s, he has been more than helpful, saying even if i dont get this motor from him, he would like to see me get a good motor from someone.

Another one i was looking at from Butlers, they supply the block and rotating assembly, you or your builder need to put it together.

I dont know why on their site page they have assembled short blocks, says call......................well when i called and asked about that, i get we dont do that anymore.

The also say, they will not build a motor for you anymore, they will do a motor here or there and put it up on their website for you to buy.

I doubt that one cam bearing was getting any oil, can't see how that hole would have lined up with the feed hole in the block. I don't understand how the shop even let that go out the door like that, a high school shop class would have done better.

The lobes on that cam appear to be worn pretty bad, as if the rollers weren't even turning. With that few of miles, there should only be a 'ghost' type witness mark on them.

What do the lifters look like?
