Shoot, everything looks pretty normal there, all stock parts. I didn't dig a block out yet, actually kinda forgot, but forgot because we are flat out.. Shake Gerry's tree and tell him to remind me to dig out a block and check.... :)

If everything looks good to you then I am feeling better. On that note, if i purchased new pistons should I bore it out to .20? Is that all that needs to be done to bore? new pistons and rings? Can I use the stock rods for the new psitons, and if so how do you dis-assemble them?

Found a shop local to me in Stafford, VA. He will be cleaning and boreing the block 20 over and inspecting all my other componets for servicability for $250. Is that a good price?
I will keep updates coming as I get them. Oh yeah, I will also be putting in a nice order to you Jack in the very near future. :D |

so i dropped most of my internals off at the machine shop. i was told the cam is shot and should go ahead and spend the money and get a Comp Cams kit. Since i want to re do this motor once and right i decided to go ahead and go with his suggestion. He mentioned the crank wasnt to bad and i can get it ground to a 10 - 10. He will be boring it 20 over and also clean the heads up and the intake and pleneum. the heads had ARP bolts so i will be re using them. New pistons and he mentioned new rods due to a new cam kit and new pistons.
Engine clean and bore $250 Crank grind $200 didnt ask about the heads getting cleaned up. Does this make sense to you guys and gals? |

Need some help
Ok, motor is back in, sealed tight except for the crack in the manifold at the coolant temp sensor. I try to start her up and get a "puff" of pressure from the exhaust and the motor bogs the starter down. It will not start up and Im not sure what to do, I have no cam tool but it is degreed in per caspers instructions and others. primed the oil pump until lifters were getting oil.
everything is hooked up right, i do not have an EGR anymore or the solenoid, could that be a problem? no heat or ac anymore either. any and all help is greatly appreciated. |
