    Now that I got your attention.

    I got pretty deep into the motor's throat and guts.

    Thanks for all the help and input guys.
    Next, putting the new motor in.

    I have a bunch of good internal parts if anyone needs something from a 350 Mag. Less 1 cylinders and one head. All the rest of the guts are good. Block is history.

    It's amazing how cross-firing between cylinders eats away at the block.

    Well, cool I think.

    Are they a known rebuilder? It's tough putting it in and out, and I've seen errors before, more than once. I'd pull the pan and plastguage at least one main and a couple rods.

    Did they spec the valve types?

    Rebuilt Marine Engine for the tolerance increases etc. and a marine cam overlap?

    Just be cautious, it's easy to check stuff now.
