Rebuilding my SD220
Do any of you have any comments on rebuilding this engine? Any good lines on parts? I'm hoping to get by with new cam, rod and main bearings and a re-ring. Won't know on the cylinders until I tear it apart.
I've put about 150 miles on this truck in the past month. I've had recommendations to magnaflux, hot tank clean, crank grinding/polish, etc. Do you also recommend this on this truck that will only get a few hundred miles per year? Only reason I'm rebuilding is I didn't want the motor to self destruct and it was knocking pretty good.
