just got the engine from the skyhawk back from Pee Gee Scotty today. Just did a refresh. 255 runs on the old engine and only problem was a cracked intake manifold. All bearings and rings looked brand new. If i would have know they looked good I would not have freshened it. Was worried about the aluminum rods mostly. Everyone says to check them at 250 runs. Just want to say thanks to Scotty for doing the work and thanks to Finishline Performance (Jeff and Bob) and (Mike) from TA Performance for all the parts and help with this project. John jr
