Cheepy Three-Sixty build

MileHighDart said

Just wondering, things like boring for oversized pistons, line honing, decking the block, roller tip rockers are all things that don't go along with a "cheepy" build. At least not in my budget.
I know you said you already had a bunch of stuff lying around, but machine shop time ain't cheap.

Sometimes thes steps are needed and unavoidable. Doing it now at his shop is of no cost and 100% avoidance prep.
If it were a "No cost to you" issue, you would do it on every engine.
Not checking is nutz!
Checking and knowing it is out of wack and NOT doing anything about it makes the insane asylums look like a serious think tank.
Being to cheap to do anything about it, I can not come up with any descriptions on the insanity of it all.

Cheap builds are builds done right and once. Not over again and again.

How anybody here can take pot shots at RAMM for the machining work done to insure a properly done job is unbelievable.

While YOUR BLOCK may not need any of these steps, these steps taken by the builder should be seen as needed for this block.
