I bought a built motor that the guy never paid for, and am having my guy take it apart and check/fix it. And I'm dropping it and a zf5 in place of my bad motor and t18.
I'm sorry bud. I got so used to everyone knowing what I was doing I guess I forgot to add all the details to the original post!
I not only want to see it, but I disassemble the engine, mike the parts, and then take them to the machine shop. Once I get the parts back, and I hope to in the next week, I mike them again to ensure I got what I asked for. Nothing left to chance.

So you bought a newly built - never run- engine, and it needs to be milled and sleeved???
I've had no problem at all with the piston on or close to TDC. It will creep a bit if not on TDC, but not much. And that's on a worn-in engine. I would think the rotational drag on a new engine would be significantly more, preventing creep.
