Well as some may know, my 2.3 massively spun the rear main bearing. Even though I have not opened the case, the debris in the oil tell me that the crank and likely the case is gone.
I think I can reuse the heads and pistons and cylinders. But I am assuming all of the other internals are toast. Pulled the oil pump and filter and there was no visible metal in these but there had to be parts of that bearing coming off for a while before it failed. Any thoughts on trying to reuse crank, cam, and case? Or should I just start building from another case? This engine had 98 mm P/Cs on it. I thought I recalled that the largest P/Cs that could be fitted were 96mm without opening the case. |

It’s a good day when you come home to a huge shipment from the Type 4 Store! Special thanks to Charles and Nicole for dealing with all the questions and getting me the parts I needed.
