What does the cylinder wall look like ?




From what I can see and feel, it doesn't seem bad at all. I'm surprised, considering the condition of the top ring in the picture I posted earlier.

Yes, where are all these people?!?! Craigslist shows a 383 in Carlsbad for $200. But it has also been sitting for 10 years, which sounds pretty much like what I'm dealing with right now. I'm beginning to question the wisdom of trying to get this motor running.
