Pistons Out

["Ned Smith" <smithn00@kitepilot.net>]

All the pistons are out now. All connecting rod bearings show some copper
except #1. This says to me that #1 has not had full compression for some
time. The crankshaft surfaces under the bearings look and feel good. All
bearings are marked "std". I haven't looked at the main bearings yet.

Looking up from under the car all the lobes on the cam shaft are shiny
without obvious wear marks. How can you tell if it needs regrinding?
