This is a little out of sequence now, but you needed to bear witness....a demented look if ever I've seen one. View attachment 2321146

Hello,

"That unmistakable look that comes with madness," as someone wrote...

Are you keeping the 45?

Hi Juan: BJ45 is not mine. It belongs to a client. It is next once the 70 is completed.

Hello Onur,

Thank you.

Keep up the good work.

May I ask what is the plan for the 45?





Juan

PS: Is there an e-mail address I can drop you a note to?

Hi Juan:

Lots of things will happen with the 45. I have about 1.5 months to do it all... It's a pretty big list.

I'll PM you my contact information.

Best.

Well, I got my block back from the machinist.

It’s actually in one of these pictures.

 

[OGBeno]

First thing to do before putting back on engine stand is to install rear main seal and retainer...

Access is easy and the installation is 5 mins.

 

[OGBeno]

Next, my good buddy @landwagon (who drove all the way from WV to spend the weekend wrenching with me) and I spent some time taping up the block to get it ready for priming and painting tomorrow.

That machine shop definitely has an "old school" filing system.

Onur,

Please keep up all the detailed pictures and with part numbers. This will be the 3B engine build everyone will refer to in the future.

I have a -040 engine from Joe K from a European BJ70 that will get a rebuild one day. Only difference so far is it has an inline pump.

Again great detail,
Ernie

Glad it’s useful, Ernie.

The dude in action, no turning back now.

Are those your safety sandals?

 

[greenbeast]

Steel straps?

 

[landwagon]

The dude welds

 

[landwagon]

Almost finished with the cross member

 

[mongoose2231]

Good work, me like the safety conscious approach!

 

[landwagon]

He may turn into a welder

 

[landwagon]

A few things getting done around here
