The machine shop will sleeve the one cylinder and the rest can be saved with a light hone. I'm really antsy on the hone because of the increased clearance I will get. They're also changing out the rods and looking for a new crank.

We never did really figure what the wear was from, although they say the scratches in the bearings were from dirt. I washed that block and all passages with hot soap and water until it was squeaky clean. I just don't know.

I got Rocky Rotella's book but that didn't help a whole lot. Most of the Pontiac idiosyncrasies in the book I already learned from you guys.

One thing I am going to do is send an oil sample to Blackstone Labs for analysis after a 1,000 miles of so to see if there are any abnormal readings from wearing parts. That will at least give me a peace of mind down the road.
