Progress so far! Motor break down.

Everything so far... rebuilt block as far as I can tell. 060 bore. Lovely. Smog era heads, lovely. Plan on cleaning everything up, a little paint, gaskets, keep it moving till it blows up. Not really planning on dropping money into a motor that been bored like that.
