Good stuff, i read in a hot rod mag about the high nickles content and how it chews up machine tools, well thats really a novice speaking these blocks although they have a higher nickle content than many they are still very soft and very easily cut, heck my shackles are like 12 points harder than the 401 blocks i have in the shop
when i took my 304 apart with 120k miles there were still honeing marks in the cyl lol
WOW did it smoke the whole time, it sounds like the rings may have never seated, their is a part number for engine with rings that never seat its a abrasive compound that scratches the cylinder and allows the glazing to peel off, thats wild still with hone marks, unreal....LOL i would have done a backflip if i saw that......LOL
hardly smoked at all
