From what your pictures show the bearings looked great, too bad about the lifter.

Rebuilt with new seals, lifters, bearings and piston rings. Camshaft was ok.

I live in Columbia, SC. (Irmo, SC to be exact).

The positive side is that I get to learn through the process. I’m better at figuring out what problems are associated with different mechanical issues (noises, power loss, MPG etc.)

I agree. It would have been nice to have had the engine run great without the lifter going bad after only 600 miles of use. I’ve got to decide if I want to put that engine back in the truck or keep the Jasper engine currently in the truck. Both are new. I really need the space and there might be a buyer out there that would give me a fair price if I sell one of these engines.
