I won an auction on a 3.2 short block that was run low on oil and scored one cylinder. According to the owner who purchased it from an acura dealer, the damage was discovered from smoke in exhaust from losing the piston ring (probably) on that cylinder, not from any internal noises sooo, what are the odds that the crank and rods are still OK? Owner says the drive shaft turns smoothly with little effort from one hand. The bottom end has not been opened. At the very least I have a ready to be sleeved 3.2 block right?
I know I put the cart before the horse on this one but for what I paid just the block is a good deal and if the other goodies are still in good shape it is a big bonus!
Thanks for any input.
