    Yes I purchased the car knowing it would need some engine work over the winter.

    Sorry, but my reply with “??” was referring to your request for “Recommendations needed”.
    Not that I can offer anything useful, but it may help others to know what specific recommendations they’re asked to provide.

    I would “assume“ (perhaps incorrectly) your engine builder/shop should know how to deal with it and anything else.
    If not, perhaps time to look for another one.
    I can’t see any useful advantage asking advise or recommendations for anything of that nature in an online forum, but again, perhaps that’s just me.

    Sorry, this apparently didn't come out the way I meant it and maybe I just didn't quite understand your initial intentions/objective.

    Hi Chas,

    Feel free to give me a call, even if its just to give you some pointers for when you start talking to machine shops your side. I currently have a 330GTC in for new liners.
