Came home from camping to find a package left by my door soaking wet. It was my HPOP back from Terminator. Luckily he packaged it good so the water didn't get to the pump. Maybe this week I can get some time to work on it.

I had to remove the piston cooling jets so I can hone the cylinders. I have heard stories of having trouble re-using the original bolts. I orderd new bolts that match the spec on the original. m6, 1.00 x 18mm, 10.9. I plan to loc-tite and torque them. Should these be ok?

Got the cylinders honed. Most of the parts are here. Just need to get the time to get to work on it.

I had read on another thread on here that the tubes have been known to fall out and be found when changing the oil. I was told since mine are out to tack weld the tubes to the base with a tig welder. That is why I got new bolts that matched factory.
