Danny every reply gave you their answer and WELLWORN said it the best. Here's mine it sounds sarcastic but isn't. Squaring the crank and rods away was pretty reasonable for what had to be done--the block may also needed work such as welding and milling then line turning all complicated and exacting and $185 is pretty good. Now working on the sleeves is heavy work has some risk, it doesn't matter how they look or feel it matters how the "mick" out. Doing this requires specialized knowledge and equipment--do you have it? If not let the machine shop do it. $300 is cheap I had a 4 cylinder gas head done with new guides and ground valves and a surfaced head cost over $1000. Your only changing sleeves. Maybe you need new rings/ wrist pins and maybe new pistons all depends on well the job was done the first time. Remember I talked about the 4 cylinder gas motor--a Volvo turbo motor it had broken rings on 2 cylinders the whole job required 2 sleeves and 4 cylinders bored to the same size. Then new pistons/ rings/ bearings/ seals and gaskets cost of the whole job, A THE MACHINE SHOP, was $4000 and I did all the disassembly and assembly on a 15 year old car. Worth it? a valid question that I asked. Still driving the car today with over 300,000 miles 200,000 on the rebuild and no problems. The body's falling apart and a professional Volvo mechanic wants the car for parts--soon. I guess my final answer is to check what has to be done and the cost before you start. Can you do it and can you afford it. If you can't do it or can't afford don't do it!

Today's Featured Article - New Hitches For Your Old Tractor - by Chris Pratt. For this article, we are going to make the irrational and unlikely assumption that you purchased an older tractor that is in tip top shape and needs no immediate repairs other than an oil change and a good bath. To the newcomer planning to restore the machine, this means you have everything you need for the moment (something to sit in the shop and just look at for awhile while you read the books). To the newcomer that wants to get out and use the machine for field work, you may have already hit a major roadblock. That is the dreaded "proprietary hitch". With the exception of the
