Hi Stan, Thanks for all the notes. So, there's still some strangeness going on... The two blocks definately have the same casting number -- verified it myself twice. That said, block A appears to have the larger bottom bore. The sleeves I've got are the 3-3 1/8 overbore kit...i.e. thinner walled sleeves to fit in the original bores. About the only thing I can think of that explains everything is that the previous owner of block A bored out the bottom sleeves by 1/8" of an inch to fit the newer style sleeves. If that's the case, he either enlarged the O ring groove, used a smaller O ring, or just lubed it all up really good and shoved 'em in. (I suppose you'd be sure you'd have a really tight seal down there...) I'm out of town for a few days this week -- talked to my machine shop guy over the phone last night, and he's thinking that we can just enlarge the bottom bore and squeeze the O rings. Once I'm back in town, I'm taking block A back over to him so we can do some more measuring with the blocks side-by-side. In any case, I'll post again once we look into things in more detail this weekend. (Is this stuff fun or what?!) - David

We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
