Well what a long day, got my brothers car out the way first, service items.
then engine time,
this is where i was up to
gear set, crank, shift drum, and balance shaft in place
This stuff here is very important loctite 518
it stays wet until two mating surfaces come together,
perfect for this application, no strands of sealant ect.
Now i was on a roll so didn't get a lot of pics
picked all the best parts out of 3 motors
took some remembering witch pile of parts to use
loctite on all important threads.
genuine base and head gaskets and piston in place then took off to fit rings was easer
don't now why but this pic is crap, barrel on,
pain in the butt to get the piston in the barrel, next time will go down the top with ring compressor
then fit piston to rod, if there's a next time!
and this with the head on, also a good idea to use anti seize on threads that a
prone to seizing, head bolts ect.
And the finished article, valves adjusted seals fitted, also emery clothed all seal surfaces
Took me about 7 hours to assemble the motor.
And the motor riding shotgun.
