100% successful.  Going to 1950 involves boring out the cylinders quite 
substantially, and occasionally this exposes flaws in your particular block 
casting.  That is the extent of what I know on the topic.

A complex system that does not work is invariably found to have
   evolved from a simpler system that worked just fine.
