Re: david-b's 95 Eagle Talon ESi-T Motor Build

Today I torn down the spare block. I didn't get any pics of it, but everything came out pretty good. If you seen on the 1st page there is some surface rust on the cylinder walls... when I pulled the pistons out through the top, about 95% of the rust came off with it. You can still see the crosshatching from the last hone. Previous owner had just rebuilt that block to stock (except .020" overbore). Crank shaft is also very clean, the journals looks brand new. Still going to take it in anyways.

All I'm waiting for is the pistons, and then off the machine shop.

Question, the large round seal around the crankshaft where the flywheel connects... is that the rear-main seal? My gasket kit didn't come with that big one.
