Ok, had a few days off over Christmas week so got some more progress on the engine. Installed pistons and rods but ran into some real trouble when a #2 conrod bolt touched the block. Shit, nearly dropped my bundle, but luckily i took a teaspoon of cement (got some advice) and did some surgery with a carbide burring tool. Crisis over and the crank and pistons are in.
