i'm sending the block out to the machine shop hopefully this or next week.<br />they will estimate wat they have to rebore may be 0.020 over bud thats for the experts.<br />than i will order new pistons wiseco forged and a lower ballbearing plus new seal. <br />i looked at the reed valves and one opening was dirty while the other 3 are pretty clean?<br />wat is going on???<br />how do i clean the reed valves??<br /><br />thanks reeldutch

Somehow I think I read that the machine shop needs to know that you are buying new pistons wiseco forged.
