Hi all,
Well I finally have my 1493 enagine apart, foundt that the front main bearing
was shot.  This is good news, I think.  Now I'm ready to rebuild the engine, I
wanted to try to put the engine back together as clean as possible, repaint the
block and other such nonesense.  Anyone have any experience with 1) a good
solvent that wont damage aluminum, 2) a source for the right color engin block
paint.  And while I'm at it.....any tips on the rebuild?  I just figured I'd
replace all the bearings (main and rod) while I was inside the engine, and then
replace all gaskets and rebuild the carbs before putting them back on.  Any and
all help is appreciated.
