Is that Bessy (whatever her name was)! What happened to the 87 w/ the 5 speed?
Put carb back on it fresh battery fresh brakes on the rear end hopefully back in this weekend and need to drain the 4 yr old gas for some new once I got fuel to the carb she kicked right over and purredlike a kitten
Love the Rausch Creek sticker.Still need to bleed and adjust the brakes new rear shocks, check the fluids, put some fresh gas in her register it and road test
The bred trick works great.
I tried newspaper. Didn’t work at all so I rented the puller and slide hammer from Napa. Darn jaws were too big so I trimmed them down where they mated together and now own it (not the slide hammer part).
It was easiest bearing i ever did. Even did 2 engines in 5 minutes with same bread piece.

Yup, best cleanest way. And a snack for after.
Next time I’ll waste my bread.
My 2F is out of my hands now... pending quote on cleaning, overbore, honing, possibly ridge rheaming, grind and polish cam and crank if they warrant good, inspect and same to main bearing caps and connecting rods, pressing new can bearings, add new freeze plugs, machine flywheel. Fingers crossed. I plan to assemble at home w/ my son if doing it together doesn’t prove to make my head explode.
