Also been alot of timing guides going lately so got atomic chain and sprocket then thought might as well do pistons as well and then things got out of hand lol 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/79625-ba-bottom-end-rebuild/#findComment-1220540 Share on other sites More sharing options...
