I had a great time today, I cant thank you guys enough for coming over and helping. Even if i did trick you into helping me remove the old engine block... lol.
We got a HUGE amount done and were even successful in starting the car, after a few minutes messing around with it i was able to get the car to idle along happily at 800 rpm, I will tell you this the rev limiter is not hard to find at all. One blip of the throttle and its there!
I still have to do some of the basics like check timing ect.. but other than adjusting the fuel and throttle stop the car fired under its own power in under 10 mins
There was 0, zip, zilch, nada, nothing... I mean not even a single iota of blow-by coming out of either of the open valve covers.
Gap-less rings FTW! I will never use anything else ever, I am sold on them 100%
Kyle got most of the video and pictures while i was manning the PC during the initial starts, currently waiting for the link to get the photos. He has a long drive home.
