Default oil squirters in an open deck block???

just took the pistons out and split the block of my ej20. its a pre 96 open deck.
it has oil squirters. i thought these were on closed deck block only???

cylinder 4 needs a rebore. shame as pistons are fine.

what is the value of a block in this condition with oil squirters???

and before anyone sticks their beak in this is not a ploy to sell it on here!

cheers

Have seen a few ODB with bore squirters - seem to be transition period from CDB to ODB but yes not many around.




Not worth a great deal if the block needs boring but if you re-use the block, make sure you test the bore squirters to make sure the check valve in the squirters opens approx. 60 psi.

With good bore squirters, would imagine towards the top end of the second figure.
