5 Spun rod bearings, Only one was making noise... the others were about to though. Crank is getting turned as we speak, didn't look bad, block looks great, gonna stay with standard bore. A friend of mine that has been building big power race engines for 49 years is letting me rebuild it with him watching over me and I get all the parts and machining at his cost. (cat or scat 4340 rods, NIB $340)
I have a few questions though. He is suggesting a Comp Cam valve job, with some re angling. He said there is huge HP to be had by doing this. My guides and seats are fine, even after 170K. If there is huge power to be made, why isnt everyone doing this? Im at a crossroad and dont know whether to invest the money in these B heads or go to a c head and how much of a difference for $500 to buy the stock c heads is gonna make. Any thoughts? suggestions? If its easier for you shoot me a text, Ill be at work for the rest of the night and am pretty anxious to hear what you have to say 419-689-3648
