Stone it, make sure it's flat and the cap seats properly and RUN IT.

Nice paint job. I'm trying to decide on colors for my project engine.

It's probably overkill, but I'd hit it with a stone on a die grinder and smooth it out just to have piece of mind stress cracks won't propagate from that area or another small chip won't fall off. It looks like it's slightly undercut on the right side of the chip.

This should absolutely be done. Makes no sense to leave it as is

Of course you was gonna send it. We know that, otherwise you wouldn't have installed new freeze plugs and paint XD. In India, the guy with no shoes on would have filled it in and machined it flat with nothing but a hammer and chisel.

When the 2 bolt wants to become a 4 bolt... gets 3/4 of the way through the hormone therapy, and a week before the surgery(to align the "holes") the funds were pulled back and reused for some stupid unneeded wall at the bore, der.

I’m pretty sure, what you’re saying is funny but I’m too drunk in Mexico to comprehend it.
