ldeally, l like to get the 4b in and running but l've run out of patience with it, but your right its an outstanding engine. Incidentally, l've just got off the phone from firm who will re-nitride the crank for about £75, (not sure what the dollar exchange rate is). Anyway, l'll get it done put a new bottom end in, new head gasket, run it up before fitting in and see how it goes.
