I must have missed a video. Did you decide the uneven deck height is going to be OK? I checked all my clearances and ring gap too. Probably unnecessary, but better safe than sorry I guess.
HI hope to help you!! you have centered the rods on the pistons wrong!! the crank shaft is offset from the center of the cylinder! to center the rod properly you move the rod and piston pin to the side of the offset. it will move back a little when you install it and the wrist pin wont drag on the cylinder !!! they make two big scores up and down the liners. it has been a few years since i have touched one of these engines. good luck WES
@@wesdoupe6391 Thanks Wes! You're right I screwed up on the piston pins. I knew the Rods were offset on the crankshaft, never occurred to me that the bores weren't inline with the crank.

Im going to try it. Hoping for the best, but I do have a back up plan.

Where were you able to find the replacement piston heads
I go to A and W Tractor.
