Yes I know I'd need help considering this is the first motor I've ever messed with plus I still have much to learn about building an engine, I'd appreciate all the help I can get lol. the oil pump is new with boundary engineering pump gears.
My old motor will be my engine build adventure. I'll rebuild it when I have time, I've got a fresh set of pistons and rodz plus new rings. plus it'll be nice having a spare motor around, just in case, God forbid this beast dies for some reason! |

Found out that my Head gasket is screwed on my stock block..... so it's perfect time to install the built bottom.....
just ordered a cometic .40 thickness head gasket, I'm expecting to see my Arp head studs from disturbedfan any day now and once the head gasket is in I can go ahead and get her in!!!! woohoo just need some motor mounts!!! |
When do you think it will be running again? You will have to do a break in run to Tampa.
|
I'm shooting for three weeks or so before Christmas
|
