Hmm, thats kinda funny Ben...I was told it was a "running" motor
UPDATE: Well the crank has to be turned, and he is going to re-bearing the whole motor, and hot tank it, and show me how to set up the piston rings for a little N20 I should have it back in a week or so, depending on how fast he can get it done. The whole process is costing me around $240.00 with new crank bearings and everything else......

I've read that the crank gets a tad stouter when you turn it down. Of course, that'd have to be to a certain point. Not a bad price for what he's doing, but you've got a LOT of reassembly to do ain't ya?

I look at it as an experience. The more I do it, the more I learn. This will be the first time that I have been inside the motor though.....

Rob, I double checked, info I got is that it was sold as a "take out, needed hone and possible rings". Just wondering, cause I know the parties involved, and they are professional and I doubt would ever misrepresent a product.
