For peace of mind (if it were mine) I'd tear it down and recheck everything -- I don't see time is an issue here, so better safe than sorry ... TAZ [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

I'm probably going to end up throwing some pistons in it, so everything will get measured and re-torqued when I do that. I suspect that the crank has never been out of it since the factory. It's a 2015 block, so it can't have much for miles on it. I do want to check it out though.
Thanks.

This, for sure!!! Imagine how mad you'll be if you go though all this and find that clearances are wrong and it eats a bearing, or a ring is upside down, etc, etc
