I've been out working on Mikes Cleveland, and he's NOT happy. The shop that re-sized the rods put 4 of the 8 pistons on backwards! They are a press-fit in the cleveland and I don't have a press right now. The shop that did the work is in Portland...........

Stay tuned for a new thread from me tonight!
