I just got my engine back from the machine shop all assembled and found a rust hole in the head! I've talked to the machinist and he'll take it apart without charging me and weld it. My question is whether there are other areas to check for rust as well?
It would be bad to miss something now and end up with oil in my coolant or coolant in my oil. (Two things that don't go great together- Actually that could be another thread as I've heard of oil being put into the cooling system...anyway I digress) In talking to the machinist, he said he could pressure check the cooling system with air. Any other ideas?
I did find SC Parts sells a an Oil Gallery Repair Kit with part numbers 306279 and 344716 selling for 250lbs and 112lbs respectively. Does anyone have any experience with these?
