#2 and #3 pistons are out! (I ran out of time last night, so 1 and 4 will have to wait). My piston walls are in pretty good shape. Some slight carbon build up, but no scratches or marring. Eddie: I hear what you're saying, but I'm just going to have to hope for the best on this one, knock the glaze off, and pray. BTW, I have size A (AAAA stamped on the block) pistons. I believe those are the smaller of the two, but I'll have to check on that one. The rods are stamped, it appears, in numberical order. From the crank pulley side of the motor moving towards the tranny side, the 2 rods I've pulled have been stamped 139 and 140. I'm assuming that rods 1 and 4 will be stamped 138 and 141.
