Small update:

Engine has been pulled apart and new(reconditioned) block was assembled.

Ringland was still intact, two hairline crack made up 70 psi compression lose. Quite a bit wear on the bearings, I have only used redline 10w40 and Penrite racing 10w40, not sure which one contribute to that, so i will stay away with both brands for now....

Heads were pressure tested and acid bathed, complete gasket set was used in the progress.

I also installed ethanol content, fuel pressure and intake/oil (switchable) temp gauge.

Can wait to see it on the road again ;]

The road ahead must be such a distraction from the excitement of so many data feeds going on within the cabin. ;-)

Lol at blaming the oil for bearing wear...

Earlier in the thread you told us you replaced the oil every 1000kms. How'd that work out got you?
