i found a bad scratch down both sides of one of the cylinders.theres a mark on the sides of the pistons and the rings look like new but i cant figure out what caused this?the scratch is about 2mm deep and since my blocks 40thou already now i need a new block fantastic :shrug: anyway what i want to know is there any diference with 250 blocks from cortys to falcons or are they all the same.and does anyone have one theyed like off there hands
Blocks are the same just have to move the dipstick to rear hole , it's already there but plugged with a bearing . Possible thought for damage to old block maybe gudgeon pin has slid across .
rod ive thought about that and since im building this motor to have a bit of grunt i wasnt sure if sleeving was good or not.plus 250 xflow blocks are cheap enough to come by
