    Looking for a winch bumper for 80 series in NorCal area. Long shot, but it’s worth a try.

    It’s not a crack. All pistons have the same casting line. I’ll do a compression test next and then a leak down.

    Top pic shows what I think is a problem, bottom is a healthy bore. I hope you are correct since that would mean a good engine

    Do you see the color difference on the wall? Dark vs light? I think that’s where it’s rubbing

    Not the best quality images but enough to know theres an issue especially after I checked other bores. Motor swap or sell as is?

    On a 3fe maybe but I haven’t heard anything about 1fz lifter crapping out. It wouldn’t be loose valve lash because it would only get tighter over time. I’m getting ready to crack her open soon but much rather not have to deal with it at all

    Rod knock usually varies in intensity depending on acceleration. But who knows at this point. I have another long block but I really hate the hassle of having the motor swapped.
