What I find funny is that they're having to remove the summit branding to make them "scat" branded. Meaning the batch was probably primarily made for summit.

Buncha whining about cheap Chinese parts but it's not like there's no USA options. You just have to pay for them. Summit s stuff is all private label. It's not surprising at all. The real thing to ask yourself is... would the USA part be better than the Chinese part?

Clarification. A a micrometer, in conjunction with a bore gage.

You can't measure piston bore clearance with a set of calipers. You need a bore gage.

It would be neat to find and oddball old school stroker setup, but I couldn't imagine spending money to offset grind a crank these days, with how cheaply you can get an off the shelf stroker assembly.

If you were leaking that much fuel you could smell it. I didn't see how this would cause the symptoms.

Got them heads pulled yet? It's 20 bolts....

302 heads or don't even bother

I'm not wanting to read the whole thread through. Didn't you mention one of the cylinders was down on a compression test?

Would this cause the listed issues though...

You're this far in. Pull the heads-its not that big of a deal. No way in hell I'd build it back up without doing that. Even if only for piece of mind.

That's a great idea!

Somewhere between 200-2000
