Fellas,
Getting ready to put this motor back together, but had a couple quick questions as I need to prep block and check piston to valve clearance with clay.
1. I scraped deck smooth, but still has discoloration. Someone mentioned running over the deck with WD-40 and a true bar (don't have one) wrapped in some sand paper to knock off high spots? Would this remove to much material or score too much? Would a sanding block not be true enough?
2. I'm putting head on with old head gasket that's already crushed. Can I just clay #1 cylinder for ptvc or do I need to check others? Ok to just torque a few studs down?
Thanks
