Hello guys, I just bought a running and driving 95 TA that was wrecked with 78,XXX on the odometer as a parts car for my 1995 TA with 225,XXX miles on it. My plan was to just do heads and cam but I took the engine out and heads off and I am no expert but the cylinder walls look a little rough to me. Should I get the block machined? Any opinions and advice is appreciated. Thank you.

 

Actually still looks like cross marks are still visible..

 

Any Ridge at all? I mean those rings are seated anyway, I'd just run it.

 

If there are no ridges/gouges in the cylinder walls then I wouldn't worry about it and just run it. To me, it looks like normal wear/tear.

 

No ridges and gouges. Just looked funny with the way it was smooth on one side and the other side still had the scratching, like maybe it wasn't exactly round anymore. If you guys say it looks good to go the I will run it.
