My '66  500 four door is back to life with a new egine.  Tomorrow will be  
four 
weeks that I have owned it.  Now it was 'running' when I got  it and I put 
about a thousand miles on it.   Yet the amount af  blowby was unbelievable! 
Tore it down two weeks ago and put in new TRW  pistons with ceramic coating 
and chrome 
rings.   Also nicely  deflashed, ported, ceramic coated heads.    Fired it 
up this  afternoon and it settled into a nice happy idle.   Drive great.  
I need to change the oil again and put the lower shrouds on  now.

Check it out and let us know how it runs---especially with the ceramic  
coating on the heads and pistons.
 
Question--just which surfaces of the heads were ceramicized?
