either take care of my scored bore and run a glaze braker  through them all

Not to muddy the water, but back in '71 when we tore into my 63 TR3  motor we 
liked the way the rings and bores looked so much we just changed the  
inserts, did a valve job, and put it all back together.  It was running  great 
when I 
sold it a few months later (dammit...).
