haven't bought anything yet. i'm still waiting to either find a competent machine shop or figure out how to do any block work myself such as deglazing that thing. maybe i'll pick up a micrometer and some other stuff on monday when i get paid.
i'm probably going to get a new timing set as well. '82 was the last year of the bulletproof timing setup, but i figure the chain is probably stretched from 22 years of use so it could stand to be replaced while it's easy to do. it seemed like a pretty tight engine, but it has the typical old age problems, like low compression and seals headed downhill. i wanna make her run better than new again
