I happy with what I got done today

Red gave me a present that was mighty tasty

Progress for today was:
Installed crank
Installed rings
Installed pistons

Don't look like much but it takes time.

As always, Red has pics so she will upload them when she has a minuet to go through 30 pics

I plan on installing the Cam, Timing Chain, Lifters, and degree the cam shaft tomorrow then I'm at a stand still till I get heads

I hope they come soon

These will look better than what she has

She has the Carbon Fiber ones just like these and they just don't go that well.

I didn't care much for the lights that came on the car when I bought it. They were aftermarket. These will at least look better cause right now I'm not paying $300 or $400 for the regular maro lights. These new lights are black and will blend better with the car than what is on there now.

Besides, when my car is done, you can kiss my rear end good bye! You won't see my taillights much. BWAHAHA!!!!!!

What do you mean that doesn't look like a lot of progress? Anyone who has ever built an engine knows that putting in pistons takes a long time. Especially if you check ring gap and everything you are supposed to.

**Phantom409** · April 11th, 2009, 10:22 AM

Just typed out don't look like much but it took hr's to do.

Every ring was checked and gaped to spec.
Top rings .018
2nd Ring .022
