I think that's right; the block hasn't been skimmed or overstamped. Even the pistons appear original Stanpart, although that doesn't necessarily mean they're good...

Paul H Posted November 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2021 What questions can I ask as to it’s condition ? Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johny Posted November 1, 2021 Report Share Posted November 1, 2021 Doesnt actually say it turns. Then, although difficult to quantify, you could ask about crank axial play, any scratches and/or lips in the bores plus its history if known (looks like its been painted which is probably a good sign)... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
