So I have been working on the Spyder again since I had issues with the motor smoking last fall under deceleration. Well I pulled the motor and switched it up a little bit. I tore the motor down to bare block again and sent it over to Motors By Gosh (Great Guy and THANKS!) to have it punched over 20, resurfaced, and all of the other goodies he does.

Freshly painted and machined block. The new 2.3

I then found a new crank, rods, and pistons so a little bit of clearancing of the block was needed.

That was all that was needed for clearancing and then the crank went in.

I ground the rings to spec and installed the rods and pistons.

More to come.
