Got cam towers on - Left one went without a hitch - right one still binds a little - so I will try and retorque - really don't want to have to pull it again (and have to strip all the loctite 574!)
At least it look more like and engine now  Ralph - I should be OK with the CR - If I run a really hot track day I will top off with a little race gas - but otherwise we get really decent gas here being so close to the gulfcoast... If I grenade it - I'm sticking in a 3.6 -

OK - little more progress - a little set back too. In my bone head move I switched the cams - hard to time a cam on the wrong side. So finally got that taken care of - and afterwards - even though I tested and redid 3 times - just to make sure I did it right.
So after a little anxiety - I made some big progress and did some buttoning up... Woo woo! (and the cam lines are just finger tightened - I still have a few supports to add)

Jeremy, did you chamfer the heads at all to accept the 98 mm cylinders. I am just looking at mine right now and wondering if that is required of not?
Thanks, Jeff

Nope but I did have them flame ringed - the cylinders I had were flame ringed - so had to have the heads done too.

OK did the piston to cylinder check tonight - plenty of room with the valve pockets on the JE's. Installed the rest of the rocker arms, oil cooler and set all the valves. Not to difficult - getting to the end of the book so that must mean something, right? No suprises - in fact everything is coming together. I see what some people mean about setting the valve clearance by feel -
Anyway - looking like an engine now here she is sleeping...

 This jack? That's my number 2 jack - I have sentimental attachment to it now... It doesn't really get any work, I just roll it around the car so it feels like it's included... It's the first floor jack I got (with two box tops from cases of Castrol) since you got me started on this adventure... Before hooking up with this board - I didn't even change my own oil - Now look at... and it's all your fault Wayne!

A few more updates =
Go alternator hooked up - front fan belt cover = Engine Shroud and Intake. Still have to torque down the intakes - but wanted to make sure I had everything present and accounted for.

Awesome work Jeremy!
I haven't been around much lately so I must have missed what made you tear it down. |
