True Classic
Still can’t believe how pretty and clean all the parts are on your car!
Moly grease like used on CVs has great extreme pressure resistance and decent with occasional dirt,
But it’s not necessarily compatible with plastic bushings.
I ended up finding this ‘red grease’ that’s for farm equipment and whatnot - compatible with plastic bushes and dirty conditions.
Works on throwout stuff for me.
As for cylinders,
Tearing them down and inspecting the bores will tell the story.
Maybe they aren’t scratched up, or will clean up with a hone?
Not every cylinder needs sleeved.
An Italian cylinder in good shape and an NOS kit should be master nirvana, right?
Something about new master assemblies or even kits, is that they might be sitting for many years before sale and become dry/brittle.
