Re: All parts are on their way...new motor should be ready soon UPDATE <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
engine is now fully together <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
the pistons had .060 clearance on the intake, .170 on the exhaust. I flycut .020 to give a min .080 clearance on the intake
Cranking the motor over by hand...holy crap this thing has some COMPRESSION <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />
I'm prepping the k-member and maybe getting the engine up in the car today...but since my help abandoned me for today I'll be flying solo <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> Tomorrow it'll be fired for the first time <img border="0" alt="[chug]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_chug.gif" />
