I've actually had unsolicited offers from THREE different builders to help me out. (and I really appreciate it....there's some really good guys out there!) I am going to get it fixed by one of them. I'll let that party decide if they want this knowledge public. I know SS knows how to build a motor....but it's pretty apparent that this one got the overbore, chamfered the edges a bit, and sent it on. I'm noit the brightest bulb on the planet....but I think I could have bought Crankshop pistons and sent out for an overbore and re-nic myself for a lot less $$$. Oh well...live and learn.
Edit: and ya....I spent a small fortune on clutch parts, plus wasted the time of many a good tuner including BJ and DJ trying to make this thing run.
