The gouges arent very deep, and i only need this engine to last me about 30-40k miles. Should i poney up for the boreing, or would i be alright just to say ---- it and put it back together?

btw its a d16a6

 

Bah, I wouldnt stress at all man, I've had way worse and have seen way worse. It may smoke a tad at the high rpms down the road. But I'd just slap in the new rings and call it good.

 

thanks man. two nights in a row with light speed response. you should really be charging for this.

 

wtf happened to that ----?

 

I got the engine pretty cheap. i was told; "it just has bad compresion in one of the cylenders." like a box of fucked up chocolates.

 

almost looks like it had a blockguard on it at one time?

 

block gaurds go on the outside of the cyls

 

Just besure to clean the deck of the block, because that composite head gasket is still stuck to that block.

 

whats the best way to get a headgasket off

 

hone the ------- ---- out of those badboys and put it backtogether
