check bearings, rings, any wear. swap lifters and clean it the best you can.
use all oem gaskets for no leaks.
probably a new oil pump.
you'll be surprised how much these engines can take.
good luck on the build,

Well rod bearings look great, 2 main bearings are shot. Going to drop the block, crank, pistons and rods off at a machine shop. Is there any machine shop I should stay away from in San Antonio?
Don't think I can polish this out.
This is the worse looking cylinder
Decided to go clean out the sludge in the oil pan, should just throw it away and get another one. LOL...
Dropped the block, crank and Pistons and rods off at the machine shop. I was impressed that only thing that needs attention is the crank. They are going to check everything out, turn the crank, hone the block and call it good.
Will update with pics when I get everything back.
Which machine shop did you decide on?

I was going to use millers machine but they said it could take a few weeks. There is a local guy here in Floresville at Midway Automotive, so I decided to try him out, keep some of my money local. I went by his shop today to check on everything and looks like I should get every thing in the next day or so.
