After a tear down of my 2.0l engine I started the build up to the 2056 big bore upgrade. Having a Bridgeport I started with the (5) 3/8 oil galley plug on the block halves
Drilling a hole in the plugs and a slide hammer to remove the old plugs then started the installation of the new pugs I was able to order from Type 4 store.

I hope you're enjoying the process. I enjoyed it and it was really gratifying when it fired up and ran like a real champ (after I fixed the broken rings).

I'm following your progress, and here's hoping you are stoked with the outcome (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)

Thanks my friend, It has been as much fun sharing the process with the "World" as leaning how to do it your self.
I am still on track for Spring start up, and still on track for my expected Hp of 130hp (+- )

Was the top ring gaped too tight? What did you gap your rings at to resolve your issues? KB pistons? and about 002 -003 piston to cylinder clearances?

My heads are on the way to Jorge at EMW and looking forward to getting them back soon..(lots of good stuff to share)

Best
