you all said i needed a friend in the engine rebuilding department and I found one. Austral Engine Rebuilds. The guy said he'll tank the block, bore it, replace the cam bearings, and stake the pistons to the rods for about 250. I dropped the block off today and will drop off the pistons and bearings tomorrow. To our new floridian friend in the Miami area, this place is on Griffin Road, just east of the Turnpike.
