Since you have to go through it any way maybe its time for just a little 871 and maybe a superchiller? All you need to do is change pistons right? Ok ...maybe the cam too. I know its probably part of a matched set so you will have to do the other engine too but hey you need to finish the summer strong right!

OT,
These are my 1st non blown motors in over 7 years, wanted to try something different. I am already building some race fuel high compression versions of these though.
