Bill,
I am thinking about the worst possible situation. I am going to pull the heads, cylinders and pistons for an examination, while the engine is out. If the cylinders and pistons are good and are alusil, I'll reuse them. If they are bad, I'll go the 3.2 route. If the cylinders are bad and are nikasils, I'll rehone them and reuse. It is hard to say right now. I have to find out which ones they are and make appropriate decisions after the examination. Andy
