Subject: To rebuild or not to rebuild


Huron county Mi
That is the question… I have an 855 big cam Cummins with 8,000 hours on it, motor has never been touched. I took it in to the shop due to the head gasket’s leaking coolant. Once they had the heads off they sent me a picture of one of the cylinder walls with some light scoring. I wasn’t planning on an in frame overhaul. Just wanted the heads gone thru and new injectors. I plan to keep this tractor (1982 Steiger) for some time yet as I only farm 500 acres and it is plenty of tractor for me. Attached is the picture sent to me, would you rebuild or run it? My opinion is run it
