Re: 57 Panel "FAKMLC" build
















Engine sat for a while at a shop. Never been inside an engine from either topside or bottomside. Engine had approx 90k miles.

Rod and main Crank bearings had 0 play ... couldnt get them to move... tight
Crosshatching still there on cylinder walls looking via inspection camera from top. Looks good from backside also in pics above.
Inspected before from topside with inspection camera and could see crosshatching and all looked good no visible damage to pistons.


So ...... only issue is the coloration. I think its a mix of small amount of heat as well as oil from being sat in shop. I dont see any major issues ...... especially with;

Crosshatching good
Leakdown test good
Cylinders clean
No play in journal bearings.
rotates fine.

So think it looks ok. Thoughts ? from more experienced eyes.

Does someone have the torque specs an reassembly procedure for the new oi pan and pickup tube. --> NM found them -- see the broken bolt below

Think you have to do in certain order due to the pickup orientation.
Also ... plan to just use razorblad and some mineral spirits on the pan surface to block where old gasket is.
New pan might give a quick light blast of brake cleaner.
