Thanks for all the help guys. I had my truck apart tonight cleaning it so I pulled the rotor off (it's steel by the way). It was a little glazed so I took some sand-paper to it and also to the...

Is This A Bad Idea?

I don't see how it could hurt anything. Unless the head-to-block surface is used to seal the combustion chamber, then you might run into problems. I don't know if it would make that big of a...
