After around 4 years I got my engine torn down tonight. Never a major problem with it--but its long overdue for inspection.
Im posting some pics I took of various parts to see what ya'll think. I dont have the crank out yet, but theres some pics of 2 of the rod journals , rod bearings , pistons , and the solid cam.
its a 493, Ross pistons, Clevites, Scott Brown solid cam, pump gas, eddy rpm heads. Never shifted the thing over 6200 .
