Before I split I decided to pop the head off and get some measurements on the cylinders just to see what I'm gonna face later ( no broken head bolts yay me). I already planned an in frame rebuild so I didn't bother checking compression.
I'm measuring 2.6350-2.6355 on every cylinder. I figure either it's worn .010 or bored .010 over. I don't recall seeing .010 over rings anywhere. I guess the next thing I'll do is pop out a piston and measure it.
