It appears to be an untouched engine. However, I was concerned that someone had rebuilt this 46 year old engine by using std size parts. Cylinder bores wear and become egg shape with use...did I mention it is 46 yrs old...and if someone just honed the cylinder the bore is NOT correct and maybe too big for rings and piston.
