Hi. Thanks for the reply. I used 27 mm on crank to try turning. Last time running it was noisy, maybe injectors. Never "ran away" but I saw the vids and read about what a mess that makes so had a board ready when I started it. Ngoma, what do you think? busted cam or hydro lock should still allow SOME movement, wouldn't it? Well either way I'll push it into the shop and get started. I'll learn how to post pic's and show you what I find. I appricate the caution about "great" engine builders. If you google Alan Armstrong you'll probibally see what I mean. World class right here in little old NS. Take care and have fun... Paul that's Allyn Armstrong
