car comes around the corner, passes by, and then happens to go over

Do they still require you to know Morse Code to get a license?

I figured replacing the one was safer since I had no idea how to go
about rebalancing the offset weight on the crankshaft to accommodate
the heaver rod. Having one of them off balance is better than six,

As I recall, the original post reported a seized engine. Best to take
a look before trying to force the engine to rotate.
I'd still like to see more info on what to look for and how to
interpret the results of a blow down test - if anyone has a link or
document they could forward.
Thanks

Would the coolant seep around the piston rings and end up in the oil pan?

You can feel and hear when you hit the compression strokes. If you
turn slowly, the air escapes quick enough. Pulling the head should
tell you a lot - but it's hard to stop once you start working on

My wife's family always used to ask us to bring wine too, which is odd
since I am a beer drinker and she is a non-drinker. I found if you
bring wine that comes in a box - just once, they will never ask you to
bring wine again I don't think the color matters.
Hope this helps.

If it were to do a head-on with a 350SDL, it would go from +70 to -50 instantly.
Still, impressive for a matchbox - but I would not want my wife driving one.
