Things are moving right along. I have all of the case hardware cleaned and prepped for assembly. I also have the chain housings, chain covers, and oil pump cleaned and prepped for assembly. All of the galley plugs in the case and blind studs in the chain housings have been epoxied just as the factory does.
I have been sourcing parts that were missing from the motor here on Pelican.
I got word today that Armando from CCR shipped the crankshaft via FedEx. I am hoping to see it before the weekend. I had him cross drill it for better lubrication on cylinders #2 and #5.
I also heard back from the machinist, MTE, LLC, that the heads and cam towers are mostly done.
Hopefully if all the stars and moon line up, I will have it all by the weekend. If so, the build begins. More pictures to follow.
I need a clone...of me.
