now im just wating on my bearings from majestic. I was gona use the acl's but it was too much money/work.


UPDATES

Well got the bearings in and they all fit very well and all fell into specs. SO now I hade to hone the small end of the TT rods to get my pison pins to fit.
Attachment 17337
brake hone to the rescue!!!!!!
Attachment 17338
It was a tight fit.
Attachment 17339
mounted the drill in the vice with the hone in the drill chuck and got to work.
I did it a few differant times to make sure that I didnt get in there and just hog the ---- out of it.

Attachment 17341
Attachment 17342
Now that the lower end was done it was time to move onto the head.

Went to napa and picked up some laping compound
Attachment 17343
Pulled the head out and stripped it clean of all the valve train
Attachment 17344
Lapping this ---- by hand was gay as ----.
Attachment 17345
So the I took the lapper and put it on the grinder and tried to make it as round as possable to fit in my drill
Attachment 17346
Attachment 17347

Then I lapped the ever loving ---- out of them!!!!!!!!!

Attachment 17348
turned out pretty good SO I put the spring seats back in and drove on the new valve stem seals.
Pulled out my skank 2 valve springs Thanks 88DX
Attachment 17349
Side by side the skank 2's are so much beafer than the stock its not even funny.
Attachment 17350

the head went back together good
Attachment 17351
so it was time for a fresh coat of paint
Attachment 17352
Looks way to much like mexi crome
Attachment 17353

So I striped it back down to repaint it a differnt color.
While I was wating for it to dry I checked out the oil pump and it is as tight as new so I painted it
Attachment 17354
and threw it on
Attachment 17355

I put the head studs in and now I need to go to the store and pick up some non mexi paint

ACL's are too much work? You drop them in, if the crank spins you're good to go!

Other than that comment, looks sweet. You have springs, buying cams later?

Well my las build was within spec, but this motor had 185k when I got it and I think it was a little loose.

The pistons were 420 shipped with the rings locks and pins!!!! To balance the whole rotating assembly(p.plate to the pully), bore, hone, deck the block, gap the rings and clean the block it was $330. DG Machine FTW!!!!!!!! Dale Green is the ------- man when it comes to machine work.
