[QUOTE="Big Bore, post: 41265, member: 760"] Following on from my friends nightmare I thought I'd get some input on things to look for when examining engine parts to see if they are even worth having magnafluxed. So during a visual inspection there are a few things I know I will look for based on what I've learned over the years. I'm sure things are missing so feel free to add to the list. I might copy and paste them into this post for future reference. Look for cracks in block at webs and in cylinder. Check pistons for cracks. Check cylinder walls for scoring that is too deep to be machined out. Check crank journals for scuff marks. If pistons are still in block check protrusion (not sure what that number is) which gives an indication of rod straightness. Check valve seats for cracks and and check heads for cracks at exhaust valve openings and exhaust manifold ports. [/QUOTE]
