I just had a friend stop by and he pointed out some heavy scratches on the #1 cyl. He also showed me the line the pistons create at the top of the cylinders after wearing. Learned some things.

He recommended to me to go ahead and just have the machine shop go through it. I told him what Id like to do with the intake/4 barrel. He said with that setup and having the top end valve job it might cause the bottom end to have issues if I just put it back like that. He also said with those goals they would probably recommend a mild cam. Im leaning toward just pulling it out.

Starting sooner than planned but hey, its gotta happen some time
