Thoughts on saving this water damaged f136 Maserati motor
Hey, so I picked this Maserati F136motor for my project car, it looks to have been in a flood. I'm keen to save it.
There is pitting on the cylinder head on #2, 7 & 8
And a slight chip on piston # 1, 3 & 6.
Strangely where the piston chips are there is no scoring on cylinder walls. all the cylinders look good, timing chains good, valve train good. Valves and valve guides probs are good but need a good clean.
I would like to save it, I will take the cylinder heads to a shop before breaking the bottom end down.
but what do you guys reckon? is this ally pitting on the heads a deal breaker?
