Re: Shucks First Build

Boy I wish it was an O-ring or a clogged screen... I'll just leave this here.





4 of the 8 rod bearings were scorn and the main bearings were all in pretty good shape. Looks like an overhaul coming.

I had to put a new set of bearings in mine as well, my cam bearings came out with the cam lol.

But it's almost back together now.

I do have a set of standard size main and rod bearings if you're interested, they sent me two sets and didn't want the other set back lol.

Re: Shucks First Build

Machine shop said it was worthless to rebuild that block since it would cost so much to fix the cam bearing bores. So that engine now sits in a junkyard.

So I took the pickup out for a stroll instead.
