Truckedup
Sharpest Tool
So...me and the wife pulled the F head out of the 51 Willys truck.We disassembled it,she doing a lot of the work because after all it's her truck :mrgreen: It looked kinda worn,10 thousands taper on the cylinder,the crank is slightly worn but not bad,loose valve guides,valves pretty much worn beyond grinding etcThe engine did run ok,had decent oil pressure,used a quart of oil every 150 miles or so..Dragged the pieces down to the local machine shop.This shop has done a lot of work for me and I trust them to do a good job.
Well,Thermo clean block and head,bore the engine,turn the crank,surface block and head,valve job with all new valves and new guides,resize connecting rods.All parts,pistons and rings,vealves,guides,bearings,and a few other things come to 1300 bucks.Add to that a gasket set and maybe a few hundred bucks of other shit I'm forgetting.Plus we do all the assembly work.
My wife says do it :thumbup:
