87 engine build
Jack, I took a picture of a problem I found. One of the bolt holes for the crank shaft cap has a hole through the bottom of it. The picture is on my facebook and here is the link. I would apprecieate it if you could take a look and let me know if this is a problem or something I dont need to worry about.
Thanks bud. http://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php...type=1&theater

Sorry Steve, I missed it... but I saw this one!! What journal is that? I don't see anything wrong, never noticed if any journals ran a hole all the way through. I'll look at one in the shop..

Thank you for the response, I have been very frusterated with this project since it is my first time attempting this in depth of an engine project and when I come across things I dont understand, it bugs me.
This is the second journal back from the front. Passenger side bolt hole. as you can see the allen key fits through it. It is a rough hole and doesnt appear to be from tapping the treads out. i just want to make sure that I am not going to be building something that has a problem and will be needing to be taken apart for something I could of caught early. Again, sorry for the asshole comment. Im sure you have ran into your fair share of problems.

I found my coolant leak.... where my coolant temp sensor screws into the intake, it is cracked straight through the sensor location hole on both sides. Looks like I will be getting a new intake manifold unless someone has an idea to fix a hairline crack in the manifold.

need some help
Yeah I thought about that, i just hate to rip it back off after i resealed the shit out of it. on another note.... It being a tiny leak i still tried to get her to turn over, I do need a new battery but not sure what to get, leaning towards a red top.
Also, when it does crank it sounds like there is to much compression, it will puff once and then the motor seems to bog down during cranking. Any ideas before i give in and take it to a shop?????
