Happened a few weeks ago, by turning the crank bolt everything seems fine in the bottom end, just 3 or 4 small nicks in the cylinder wall. Head is probably unfixable.

I think it would be cheaper and easier if I found a used motor and slapped it in a couple hours. Best case senario for this motor is replacing the head, boaring the cylinders, new pistons, rods.. a headache really, and more expensive.

I was just thinking this might be a good time to look into a stroker kit due to the damage.

I would build a stroker also.... Will be a few more $$$ than buying a used motor but get more bang for the buck.
