.0075" out here.

Dang it.
I started my diagnostic tear down yesterday. Got the Cams, oil pump, heads, cylinders and pistons out. The oil pump is toast. Everything inside was scored or pitted from whatever went through it. Pistons have a good deal of carbon on top, specially the rear. Rings appear in tact, don't look like they got hot. Some shadows in the cylinders, but no significant vertical scoring. Crank appears to be good thus far. Not binding when I spin it by hand in the six places I checked. Still have to tear down and check all the bearings, bushings and flush the ports. No failures with the valves, lifters, pushrods or rockers.
