Hey Guys,

Recently got a 94 Cobra with a new rebuilt engine. Water got into the intake manifold in a storage room. Pulled the heads and found some surface rust (nothing bad) on the walls but I also found no cross hatching on the walls. The pistons and rings are brand new and engine hasn't been run since rebuild. Seems to me that the rings won't seat? I would appreciate your input.

Thanks Tom

yeah better take that engine apart and at least use a glaze breaker and a drill to get a cross hatch or you will have one hell of an oil burner
