Status update,
Working with the cousin to get title paperwork and with a death in the family will take a bit more coordinating. Won’t be tearing into the block until get all the paperwork squared away.
On a positive bit I stepped away from the truck for a few days and got a bit more movement from the crank. Moved from 1/4 turn to 1/3 of a turn. Not much but more evidence that I’ve got a rusty cylinder that ever so slowly is giving up.
I would also very much prefer to have a motor to test all the supplemental systems in the car. Would rather not throw a new or refreshed motor only to find out none of the ignition system is operable.
