i picked up a 3.4L engine from an autopac wreak, took it apart, there was a head bolt broken under the valve cover and the rings are seized (from sitting w/ coolant in the cylinders?) k there was no coolant in the oil, just a lil on top of the piston (which where in the form of white bubbles) im planning on rebuilding the motor (bearings are pitted and gouged the crank a lil which will get machined) now ive heard that coolant gettin into the crankcase can crack it, how can i get it checked w/o bringing it to a machine shop or pulling the cam and cam bearings?
