[T3] Ok, its apart!

 I don't know Keith, it seems like you wanted to find something wrong, so you 
could justify tearing it apart. I guess you never heard of the reports of the t-4 
engine being nick named a tractor motor. ;-)
 If I didn't know better, it sounds like what you really want to do is build a nice 
stock based t-3 motor based on an all aluminum case, and get another 250K 
miles out of it.

Well the 2056 is apart and my worst fears are realized, What I was afraid Id
see.

NOTHING WRONG!

cam and lifters look fine, lifter bores look fine, nobody ever figured out
why the lifters werent rotating with the last build but not a problem here,

Cylinders have maybe a LITTLE scuffing,nothing serious, barely feel it with
your fingernail, little or no scuffing on the piston skirts,
