nice, just a fyi sometimes they dont pre seet the rings so you take it out and go from like 35 and punch it to like 60 and slow down the 35 again and keep doing that like 6 or 7 times. and that should seet them in nice.

The engine rebuild did this already before they shipped the motor. They prerun their motors before shipping them.

Noticed today I had a little rattle every once in a while, turns out the exhaust was barely touching the fuel tank corner. I stopped by Master Muffler on the west end of Hillsboro and asked them if they could take care of it for me. To my surprise, they fixxed it and told me to have a good day, not charging me to get it fixxed. So if you are looking for exhaust work, make sure you stop by and have them do your exhaust.
