SpikeyJp_68 Posted November 27, 2016 Author Share Posted November 27, 2016 Got engine #2 yesterday to save me taking my one out. Started like this And is now stripped to just the block & crankshaft. Will take the crank pulley off tomorrow at work becuase my impact decided to pack in. Plan from there is to clean it as much as possible, hone the cylinders, measure my crank journals( big & main) then it can be snuck inside (for a clean environment) and built up after that. As for the head, I'll be doing the valve stem seals and I've bought some valve lapping paste and a stick so the valves will be reseated aswell. Will be resurfaced before going on. I'd upload some more pics but it says each file is limited to 2MB which I've never had before or at least I don't remember it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SpikeyJp_68 Posted November 28, 2016 Author Share Posted November 28, 2016 (edited) Crankshaft pulley has been removed and the engine now looks like thisI haven't run 1 in years won't notice it on low boost cars of a barThat's a bonus then, thought it increased lag quite a bit Edited November 28, 2016 by SpikeyJp_68 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SpikeyJp_68 Posted November 29, 2016 Author Share Posted November 29, 2016 Head work has begun..Plan on cleaning the valves tomorrow at work then I'll have to wait for the die grinder I bought to arrive so I can smoothen the inlet and exhaust passages along with the combustion area. Then I'll reseat the valves and then send it off to the machine shop to be skimmed and re-assembled Quote Link to post Share on other sites

EP70-PT Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Aren't you going to ruin the valve seats with the die grinder now? Good job on them, how long? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SpikeyJp_68 Posted December 2, 2016 Author Share Posted December 2, 2016 Aren't you going to ruin the valve seats with the die grinder now? Good job on them, how long?I'll have to go over them again with some fine grit for 2-3 mins per valve. Took about 2 and a half hours. Exhaust valves were badly pitted Quote Link to post Share on other sites
