    Thanks, Bob, for that link. I am going to sit down and read it tonight to learn about balancing. Much appreciated.

    Mike, HAHA, funny you should mention that Awesum stuff, I have been using it to clean the counters, sinks, and showers at home for a while now. Really good stuff and cheap. I'll have to try it on car parts.

    Here are a couple of pictures of Dan's motor. I got it put on an engine stand tonight so we can start scrubbing it next weekend. I looked at the pistons and found where they removed metal from them, the cuts look like a broach or die grinder cut rounded areas from the sides of the pin boss. Some have none removed and some have varying degrees of removal. The engine should be much smoother this time around.
