Used engine questions
My last 5.0 motor was rebuilt by a machine shop. All I did was drop off the car, pay the bill and pick it up. Two years and many hard miles later, I need another motor. I'm purchasing a used, running 5.0 roller motor very soon. Other than checking the compression in each cylinder and the oil pressure, what else should I do? Install the motor as is? Should I tear it down, put a fresh hone on the cylinder walls, rering and bearing the shortblock and bolt on a main girdle? Or just have it rebuilt?
