it wasn't linebored, but checked for straightness though (came out ok, not great, but within acceptable limits, at least according to the machine shop...it's not a racer, but a streetblock)

I think I'm going to check if switching the rods will help any...
(maybe I have to go with a designated couple each time?!?!?)
molly compound should not be used on any bearing surfaces oil or oil base assm lube make sure you rods housing bores are to size they may be to small when recond con
