Day 2 is done. I file fit the rings, the tops are set to .030" gap and the 2nd are set between .016 and .018". I had to file some of the 2nd rings because they were too tight. I installed the cam and then the crank. Everything was going great, but as I was tightening the rear main cap, at about 45 ft lbs, it popped. Looks like I'll be buying a helicoil tommorow. I was a little upset about that. The rest of the bottom end is ready to be put in. I have all of the rings fit on the pistons. I still need to put the pistons on the rods and then they'll be ready to drop in the hole.
How do I get my pictures to show up as pictures instead of links?Last edited by 76GMC1500; 08-28-2005 at 09:23 PM.

I've been checking in and figured the site had died forever. I checked today and bam it's back on. Awesome. I don't contribute much here, I just come to read and enjoy hotrod builds and good company...
