Got all the measurements done and ordered bearings today. Should take them about a week to get coated so once i get them the engine will be going together.

I sold it after i had the car running but then the rings didnt seat. I wish i hadnt sold the engine because then i could be driving it and it is killing me not being able to. I am borrowing a friends tahoe that is his second car right now.
