I’ve never assembled, removed, or installed an engine before. Just got this back from the machine shop today along with all of the machined & balanced internals.
Think I can get it done and in before SAS?

I got all the parts about a month ago and I'm ready to move ASAP. I'm sure I probably forgot something small, but all the critical stuff from outside the US in my hands - no long delivery times, any last minute parts will be local pickup or domestic shipping. I have band practice after work tonight, but the rest of this week will look like me getting off work and going to my shop until late at night.Are you just waiting on parts or are you good to go to start assembly? What color are you going to paint the block?
And surely better than my motor with 105 dry compression and 130 wet compression, nearly-spun rod bearing, and strange low end noise. "it sounds like knock, but it's not knock" is what I've heard from a bunch of people way smarter than me. One school of thought is that the thrust bearing for the cam ate itself and it's just in there bouncing fore and aft whenever it feels like it. Another theory is piston slap or a wrist pin issue. Who knows, maybe I'll autopsy it in a year. Hey at least I got my truck to be 100% leak free right before I yank the motor haha.Solid. You totally got this man... this engine will surely be in better condition than the HantaVirus specials this past week!!![]()
When are you going to make it to one of these dude?**** yeah. You got this Jim.![]()

"Patchouli Princess, as Randy says it" hahaha I love it .Blue grass in Telluride your looking in the right spot that's for sure might even land a trust funder. Your all-right Jarrod even know you have a smelly dirty diesel. Wait til you meet Karl you guys are going to be Brohams hahahaView attachment 3655245
So I arrived in Telluride a couple days ago in the search for my Patchouli Princess, as Randy says it. Since Ouray has already claimed to be the Jeep Capital, how can we get Telluride to claim the Cruiser Capital? I have seen more 40s, 60s, 100s, and 200s than Jeeps here.
Till we figure this out, enjoy 1 of the 3 40s I saw with Black Bear in background.
might even land a trust funder.
