Gas or diesel? How early of a Super 88? Remember the first almost 1000 had cast iron pistons, does yours? How good of a set of pin bushings are in it. Are you going to balance the engine? Just asking: J.

O. K. So new sleves & pistons, rods reconditioned engine balanced? What RPM range are you thinking? Also what are the last three digits of your serial number. In other words do you have the slow speed ring & pinon? FYI for you, the first super 88 I overhauled back in 1961 was a 54 model with the cast iron pistons. That is why I asked. We also had two we put short blocks in that spring because a rod went through the side because of improper pin bushing fit. Your turn. J.
