Could this mean the engine is a good rebuild candidate?
I've read the rebuilders web sites, they read, that most engines are too damaged to be rebuilt.

The donor for FrankenB had all the same problems. Everything internal was immaculate save the housings had the typical wear caused by the assist piece. Built my Treffeisen Special Renni and it did 207rwhp
