Just cracked a piston skirt on my 250. There is some vertical scoring on the cylinder walls but it is minimal. The engine is already 60 thou over. The engine builder wants to sonic test the block and then if all is ok, take it out to 80 thou over. I need some opinions as to whether or not this is a good idea.
He also wants to install hypereutectic pistons.
This motor is installed in my '52 Chev hardtop, will not be raced, but will see duty towing my 19' house trailer.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Al
