I need to replace all the pins and dowels that are pressed into the block deck. I had them removed for when I had the block decked for the rat motor, but I do not know what size they are or if I have to be careful about replacing them with basic dowels and pins.

Thanks Rob.

How are the heads doing? We are sort of on the same stage right now - the lapping paste should be here tomorrow for me. Then I can start on smoothing the ports and bit and start assembly. I got a digital spring tester from Proform. Hope to get it this week. Bottom end is already assembled.

I got boxes of these from McMaster-Carr. Cheap and a lifetime supply.
