Just an update while I wait on more parts:
Plastigage checks out on all the rods on the crank well within spec. Could not check the crank in the journals because those clearances were to the ten thousandths and the smallest plastigage I had was speced for thousandths (correct me if Clymer's added an extra digit to the clearance there). Since the clearances were so good on the piston rods, I feel comfortable with leaving those unmeasured. Feel free to slap some sense into me if this is something I shouldn't overlook - crank looks fine and smooth, no scoring or anything on the journals, just light wear you'd expect for the mileage.
On a side note, anyone have any suggestions for torquing the rods back on to spec? The rounded form of the bottom end of the rod doesn't allow for the socket to fully lock on, so I end up stripping the hell out of it if I use anything other than vice grips. They're already questionably marred as it is.
Calipers came in the mail and the pistons are well within spec, as are the cylinders. I think the scoring may have been from (some idiot) revving before it was fully lubed, but I'm not sure. I filed the rings (carefully) without a ring filer, but there were no burred edges that I felt when I installed them. Thinking I'll need new rings, but I'm not sure if I should reuse them and the pistons or if I need to get new ones of one or both - the scoring is barely enough to catch a fingernail. I just ran some scotchbrite over one of the skirts really quickly and I got rid of about 90% of the scoring, that's how light it is. I'm sure I can hone the scoring out of the cylinder wall. Advice? I'm not sure how any of these should look after 50 miles and a few hours of running after new rings and a fresh hone.
On a whim I decided to use my new calipers to check all the inner and outer valve springs. ALL were under spec by about 0.3 - 0.4 mm. Spec is spec, but is $100 on new springs really necessary? Or am I just being cheap and trying to rationalize it?
Exhaust valve I ordered was incorrect size (short 2mm) so I'm sending it back and have ordered a new one. One step forward, two steps back.
