By the way.... if you have a scratched and/or worn piston liner, and
the replacement is expensive, try getting it "chromed". I'm not sure 
what current chroming costs are but it used to be $15 in 84 or so, so 
I'd guess $30. Anyone know Bob Oge's phone number? I've been to his 
workshop and there were all of these unhoned, chromed Mark VI liners 
sitting on the bench... he'll even make you piston/liner sets (at least
he has the tools to do it).

I imagine this'll save you big bucks if you are into Pattern..
