Message	I popped off the top three freeze plugs and the one in the middle of the back of the block in order to attack it from all sides. To be honest, I practiced first on my spare block that is now my engine table and got the hang of it pretty quick. Just be careful when clearing out near the cylinder walls, you don't want to grind a hole right through ;). Along with my dremel as my main weapon of choice, I also used a cordless drill with a looong grinding stone bit to get to those hard to reach placed =). Here's some good pics from SCC's write up on clearing the water passage out and what it should look like after: Before: After: ----------------------------------------------------------- Zeus: "I just installed my first piston.
