finally bit the bullet and ordered the parts for the engine
I had to order a crankshaft (the 2 I had were bad) the parts stores wanted $225. plus core ($150.00) for a reman crank
I ordred a "NEW" crank from japan engines.com $110.00 plus shipping
I also ordered the pistons, connecting rods (new) and gasket set
Now I'm waiting for the "big brown truck" then the machine shop to finish up, so I can get started.
