A or B Flywheel

However, once it was apart had it magnafluxed....no cracks and bored the cylinders. The engine came out fantastic and you would never think it would have been a usable block. Lots of time, energy and below grease got it done!

I have two options
The one in the car that is stuck even after lots of MMO, many tries to get it to move, removal of the head and pan that resulted in my finding some rust on the bottom end - including rust on the cam

Or the $100 special that is not stuck, needs boring, and the cam looks OK

we are going to start with evaluating the second motor and move to the other if we find too much wrong. My guess is that the second motor will be the one we rebuild but we'll see

BTW This thread has been very helpful

Hey Benson,
Wouldn't it be SOMETHING, if they were 'even close'..wow, at that price they could/would sell all they could make,eh !

BTW..for anyone who wants an aluminum flywheel ...that IS perfection, should have gotten your order in to Mr. Stipe. May be a little too late now, not sure.
