Thanks It ll be great to have time to work on it I tried to build it to be good off road and go 500,000 miles with no major issues.

I got a call from the machine shop and they said it would be a good idea and put rings in it and clean up the cylinder walls they said it would be about $800 and i bough the rings they were $300, I dont even want to know how much ive spent on everything so far but I m this deep in why stop now.

Either Cummins is the way to go 4bt or 6bt these engines are built to last and hold up they can make good horse power and torque, how heavy of a trailer are you pulling?

spent the money and bough new main and rod bearings and main stud kit also decided to sent the engine to the machine shop and put the new bearings in and check the line bore and possibly put rings in it.
