Almost back together
3 pistons, (how the hell does 2 screws destroy 3 pistons???) 4 valves, $400 in head welding / guides / milling repair, touch hone block, rings / bearings / gaskets.. normal freshing stuff.. I'm at $2900 not counting time and gas to run things 75 miles to and from the machine shop.
Lesson learned: make shure those damn squirter screws have a touch of locktite on them, and check them FREQUENTLY anyways!!!
This motor IS posessed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just did my taxes and reviewed my SS statement. Thanks to the current administration it looks like I will only have to work till noon on the day of my funeral.
