Engine Machining done..
Got the block, heads, crank, pistons/rods back.
Block:
cleaned and mic'd.
The block was already bored .040 in. over - it's been rebuilt a couple of times probably.
Cylinder bores were all perfectly healthy and simply needed a hone.
Cam bearings pressed in.
Heads:
cleaned and checked for warpage.
Intake valves were shot - had to replace them.
Exhaust valves were ok.
Valve stem guides were all out of spec and newbies were pressed in.
Basic valve job.
Crank:
mic'd and polished.
Pistons:
cleaned/mic'd/inspected
honed crank end
Had them order my rebuild kit and crank bearings..
I was trying to keep machining costs down to a min. I should have done the valve job myself... I've done it several times with my dad and it ain't that hard. Would have saved me $155. Oh well
Done at AMS here in Ft. Collins, CO.
Good guys to work with. Pricing fair? I dunno - been 25 years since I had machining done..
Labor total: $540
Parts total: $415
Next step:
Get Cam/lifters ordered..
