Where to buy/order Main Bearings for FORGED (pre-76) crank?

Yeah all is good, I'm changing the rings just becoz the pistons are out of the block and save me from doing this again in the future - the rings actually are still in good condition.

I initially wanted to just take the oil pan off and the head off to change all gaskets plus install new valve seals. But then, im already at this stage, why not take the engine apart...

ok cool. do you have all the tools to measure how far the piston is down in the block and such??

mite as well up the compression to 9.3:1 or so... what octane gas do u have there?
