Seriously I reckon you could bottle hone it, fit new standard rings & bearings, slap it back together and get another 100k out of it...it is that clean inside!
Even the machining ridges in the pistons skirts as still intact & bar some polishing of the bores (on the thrust side) they would be good to go.
Mobil 1 for the WIN!
All the piston crowns have a light carbon crust, that shows that my 1.7 bar & 11.7-11.9 AFR tune was nice & safe (det tends to 'clean' the crowns of carbon), there are no signs of any cylinders leaning out either....I'm quite happy seeing as I was running my own tune.
P.s Brent's foot is well behind the engine stand & I even wear gloves to keep the oil off my skin these days...
