I called Charles after I finally got it off the piston and described it to him. Wasn't expecting him to answer the phone on a weekend, but he did.
He sounded pretty optimistic, but I don't think it'll be repairable. That oil ring just flat gouged into the no.2 wall,.. DEEP!!! I don't think it was a plating problem, as much as it was a ring problem. I dunno Mabye I should sell this whole heap to someone and build it for THEM. I never have problems working on OTHER PEOPLE'S cars, but when I work on something that belongs to me, Murphy is always standing by... ![]() Don't worry fellas, I'll move on soon.

LOL on the finger of death.
Yeti, maybe you should just pay yourself and all should be fine then. Just keep your guard up. There are a lot of unethical engine builders around.
