so after all the drama they were able to hone the cylinders .005 and get them cleaned up . valve job is complete , crank is turned , all gasket surfaces cleaned up , and new bearings . just waiting on the custom ordered diamond pistons to come in . really getting anxious to do some boating . start a new job in the next week or so and worried i wont have time for enough boating in the remainder of the summer .
