Re: Removing ridge from cylinders
I looked at the pictures that were posted earlier - pretty heavy ridge is visible. The sleeves look like the ole' "tin can sleeves" that Ford would put in many of their early 24 stud - 221 cubic inch Ford engines (though I didn't know they did it back in 37 - maybe a later 'rebuild'???).
Me, I would look for a new set of sleeves and associated pistons/rings . . . and rebuild it to tip-top shape. With that said, I'm not trying to spend your money - just talking about the best way to do the job.
Best of luck,
B&S
