Well, i now know why the number 2 cylinder split. Core shift. I had the block sonic checked and the passenger side bank of cylinders are all too thin, .142 was number 8. Crap. Sooo, sleeve it? All 8 cylinders would run about $1600 and i would go to a smaller than the current 4.504 bore. Would like input on what to do. If i have to reduce bore size to make this thing viable, how much would i have to go? 4.40? More? I may just consider selling it since the aluminum world block i have my name on is almost ready to ship to me. I will post in the what is it worth section for an idea of what to ask for it.
