Seems like it takes time to get my engine block, crank etc sorted at the machine shop .... still dealing with the quotation and agreeing what needs to be done.
Anyway, I suggested checking block and crank for cracks ... but it will cost a small fortune to have it done properly ... is this something that you guys do or recommend to have done or should I just skip this step? Crank is straight so no issues looks like.
For my conrods I asked to have them resized as I will be using new ARP bolts .. they checked the big end eye, is the large end of the con rod. This is to check and see if they are out of round,or tapered, this way they know if they need recircling. All conrods checked out ok they say, should I be fine then or should they still do the resizing of the big end?
