Engine reassembly and such. 140-160

Try pulling the plugs if the head is still on. If the head is off and it won't turn easily, you got an issue.

Personally, if it comes to opening a motor I always replace the bearings and rings. I am always amazed by the condition of things I open to inspect when I thought they were "just fine."

The B20B/F I'm building is quite difficult to turn over due to the high tension rings I put in it to get those last few miles out of it before the re-bore! Before the pistons went in it was a breeze to spin.

Mike!
