We've got the engine back from the machine shop, and ready for re-assembly. I had a bit of a set back with the rocker arms, but parts are on the way. Happy Fourth of July Weekend!
I’ve almost finished my 392. Sadly getting parts has been a freaking nightmare. Once this engine is done it will hopefully never have to come apart ever again.

Some things necessary for an engine rebuild, a dial caliper, a bore gauge, a micrometer, plastigauge and a factory service manual for the spec tolerances.🤣

They are hard to find. I got told by a lot of manufacturers, that they've obsoleted parts for the scouts 😢

Malarki, do you have a part’s breakdown list of where you got everything??

Should have done a port and polish while it was a part

That’s what I did with my 392. These heads aren’t exactly known for performance so every bit helps!

What's the cost out the door for an engine like that. I have a 1965 scout 80

It was only by the grace of God that I was able to source oversized pistons and bearings. They've been obsoleted by major manufacturers. It's cheaper to swap for a more common engine. In parts and machining this one exceeded 4k, not including labor

Videos like this are useless to people actually wanting to rebuild an engine. I guess it's just for views but ok. not a single spec gone over wasting my breath I guess. Nice job however

I never claimed these videos would be instructional. People are welcome to watch, but honestly these videos are for a target audience of 1.
