well i now have everything but the oil filter which im pickin up tomorrow

so im finaly putting my Z6 back together, i'll take pics along the way and post em up after im done

just a few questions tho

A: i got like a washer bearing thats in two pieces... the one that fell out of the block i didnt get a chance to see where it came from... so where does it go?

B: any tourqe specs you know would be useful so i dont have to look them up again

C: do i need to put any oil or anything on any of the bearing surfaces or crank surface so i dont ---- it over when i start it

D: proper start up to not ---- anything over

E: i got ARP headstuds, whats the tourqeing sequence? i lost the instructions i think and forgot..

that's all for now, i'm sure i'll have more when i start to put it in


ok, i just checked my ring end gap and its .025 on the bottom rings and .024 on the top... is this useable or am i fucked? please dont say fucked because i dont have time to order new ones gotta have the car running by tuesday because i start work wednesday 200 miles away

not helpful i know its a thrust bearing, i asked where it goes because i didnt see where the one in the block was before it fell out

i dont want to have to go through the whole damn manual again to look for the tourqe specs

i said bearing or crank surfaces

i asked proper start up, as in primeing oil lines or building oil pressure, im not gonna rev the ------- thing when it first starts up
