Well finally got the 51 back from the machine shop. Had new sleeves installed, oil pump rebuilt, block and head machined,new bushings in connecting rods, crank turned, new ring gear, flywheel resurfaced. All the good stuff, and not a bad price just under a grand with all new parts and labor. I did notice he did not fit the bearings to the rods or main caps so i believe we will plastiguage when we assemble then take apart and if everything measures up should be good to go? Anything i should watch out for or that might be troublesome when reassembling? Will be ordering a new clutch kit also. My only concern is it looks like the head was shaved quite a bit. Thanks
