Title: Mouse ate my motor!
Post by: kaiserpug on November 26, 2009, 11:36:08 AM

Help!  I just pulled my 53 out of 24 year storage.  Found that a mouse went up the tailpipe and found the #1 piston at the begining of it's exhaust stroke.  That left the piston towards the bottom of the cylinder and the exhaust valve open. Mickey made a nice home in the cylinder and did his duty within.  The urine ate a hole through the top of the piston and right through the side of the cylinder wall!  The motor is in the machine shop to be sleeved as it was a 50k motor.  My dilemma is I now need a standard bore piston.  Any one have a lead on a NOS or good used one?  Thanks. Mike #5142 (I think!)

Thanks for the info on Kantor.  I was hoping someone out there had an original one.
