Tech, again you have helped me a lot here and I will go ahead and do this whenever I can get a buddy with tools over here. I have no engine tools such as micrometers, dial calipers, bore gauges, etc etc. The tools that you are speaking of, where should/can I buy these at? I was looking at Summit and see they have quite a variety of tools but not sure how good they are. Instead of borrowing a friends of mine I wouldn't mind buying my own because I really need them for other builds that I have planned.
As for the pictures, it just didn't happen tonight. The engine is at my parents house and I have been gone a lot lately and need to get over there to get the pictures, then bring them back to the fire department and use their computer to post them here so it is a bit of a hassle and I have been studying for my finals in a personal finance class at the local college. The final exam is tomarrow so I will be busy with that all day and tomarrow night I will take them and post them on Thursday. I will get some close pictures of the cylinder walls, the tops of the pistons and underneath as well. Like I said, I pulled the heads, oil pan, water pump, fuel pump, etc. The water pump was noisy so I figured I might as well replace all of this and know that it's all new and in good working order.
I am very picky as far as engines go and wanting to make sure I know everything that is in them and that it's all done correctly and no corners cut. One thing I will do tonight is order a SBC engine building book on Amazon.com There is one that I have to find that a friend has and said is old but very good and explains the basics of measuring and assembling a sbc.
