Reply to "#2241 - Engine rebuild"

So, got the engine pulled apart. Not good news... Think I have to buy a crate engine, or at least a better block to start with, and then do it all by my self.
The block is allready bored .040, so think I will use it for 8 bottles of good wine......


Installed i the enginestand, and with fresh coffee made by my wife, I'm ready to pull it apart !


So far so good - Not looking that bad. Those are good parts.


Everything will be put in plasticbags and marked, so I can put it back together Again


With the heads off the block, it's now exciting to see how the cylinders are looking. The heads are nice D0AE N (Close Chamber), so they are not bad. And they are even installed with stelite seats, stailess valves and bronze silicon guides.


There's alot of things in an engine, huh' ?


No good !!!!!! And my crankshaft is ofcause no good either ! Did anyone say "Stroker Kit" ??? ;-)

So now I have to find me a better block, so I can get started rebuilding a new better POWERFULL engine for next season.
