So Im in the process of rebuilding my motor. At the moment I have the top end machine work almost done (bore to 2nd, new pistons/rings, and guides so far). Where I'm stuck is whether or not I should split the case. On one hand its going to be a pain the ass on the other its fun to take shit apart and see if its fucked or not. Its a toss up for me right now. What are some common issues that require splitting the cases?
the engine its self was not in terrible shape but it was ran and maintained pretty poorly by the looks of the top end. its a 79' special with about 18,000 miles on it. I can only assume mileage because that's what it says on the smashed odometer.
