Hey everyone, looking some advice please,
I have removed and stripped the engine block from my massey fergusom 135, I sent it to a local machinist to have the old liners removed and the block resurfaced.
The machinist has advised to boreout the 3 cylinders oversize and he will insert 3 new liners and for me not to use the standard sleeve inserts. He says it's the way he allways does these engines and he doesn't rate the push in sleeves at all.
What's your thoughts on this, most advice I see is that these cylinders shouldn't be recorded, has any one done it tgis way?
Secondly the crank has some scratches and will need reground, new cranks armt that expensive would it just be handier putting a new crank in and keeping the bearings standard?
