Rick,
Are you talking of doing the rings with the engine still in place? BTDT
last summer.
Not too bad a job but it's a pain to keep the jornals clean when you ream the
ridge. While you're at it you should also plan to refresh the rod bearings.
Won't take any longer and the only cost difference is in the bearings. It takes
a bit od finangling to get the sump off but it can be done. The secret is in
using a 1/4 in drive 7/16 in. flex-socket that has been shortened to about half
it's normal depth.
