I disassembled a 36 LB block that I had to drive the pistons out of. It had thin sleeves in all cylinders I took it to the machine shop and they said they could repair most any cracks and valve seats in the flatheads. I bought a restored running chasse from ebay and saved myself much time and money. I kept the LB for a future project.
