Moving Home

[RocketScott]

Been awhile...

Got the block back from the machine shop this week. They replaced the cylinder repair rings, line bored the mains, and polished the crank (different crank, I found one used that just needed a polish)



Crank dropped back in just fine. End lash is .007, right tight to the lower end of spec. Flipped the block right side up and put the new cam in

I've been working on little stuff for the past few days. Waiting on parts to come for just about everything. Oil cooler is half rebuilt, cam followers don't even have enough parts to start rebuilding. Got the block heater today...

The injector timing jig showed up this week too. Bought it from an old timer in Dillon, SC that's closing up shop. I've had some really nice conversations with him over the past week (and his wife when she answers the phone)

Also bought a boring tool for rebuilding the oil pump, cool little tool
