[QUOTE="wmk0002, post: 502460, member: 13975"] Ive been cleaning one of the blocks up a bit and I have a better view of the bores. Top cylinder is in good shape as well as the top piston and rings. Bottom cylinder has some markings from piston aluminum transfer over the exhaust port. Cant tell anything there until I get the aluminum off. Never done it before but may try to get it off with some muriatic acid. I have a chrome lined mercury with a similar issue I've yet to tear down so ill probably eventually have to try it on that powerhead too. I have a friend whose family owns a machine shop and he offered to stop by one evening and measure the bore for me and give his opinion. [/QUOTE]
